Proper training is essential to the success of any enterprise. Getting the right training with LANSA is essential to your success with the product. The LANSA Training Program allows you to get the right training for the right people at the right time.

The overall objectives of the LANSA Training Program are to:

  • Improve general knowledge of development concepts and the LANSA product's capabilities.
  • Provide practical experience emphasizing the approach to system development with LANSA, i.e. how you should build, not just how to build with LANSA.
  • Create a defined learning path to provide training tailored to the needs of each member of a development team.

LANSA offers both self study Tutorials and instructor-based training. The Tutorials provide a simple introduction to developing applications with LANSA and they are not a replacement for the instructor-based training workshops in the LANSA Training Program. Tutorials are shipped with the LANSA documentation.

We strongly recommend instructor-based training for your staff. Instructors can provide immediate answers to questions and provide valuable insights into using the product. Contact your local LANSA vendor for details and schedules of their instructor-based training courses or review the courses offered via the Services menu at the LANSA web site.

Training is not compulsory; however, proper training will allow you to get the best return on your investment in LANSA.
