C/SIDE Classes
One of the most difficult issues partners and clients face when building
a team to work in C/SIDE customizing or implementing Microsoft Dynamics
NAV is how to bring new developers "up to speed" in C/SIDE,
perhaps without much outside assistance. While not taking the place of
a senior staff locally available, these classes not only have great introductory
material, but they also offer a senior NAV developer as the instructor.
Mike has worked with new NAV developers for over 15 years and adds considerable
value to the students time in class.
C/SIDE Bootcamp
Designed for end user development teams this class covers selected topics
from the two week Microsoft Dev courses. It is designed to allow companies
with development licenses to take over some or all modifications to NAV.
This training is not available anywhere else, and can be customized to
suit your needs. It can be taught at your offices, or at our beautiful
conference center in Atlanta.
______________________________________________________________________________
The following two four-day classes are programming intensive. In both classes
there will be a heavy emphasis on programming standards. These courses
are intended for developers with at least 2 years experience programming
business applications with an Object Oriented programming language. Partners
and Clients with at least the Application Designer license are welcome,
both will benefit from learning to use this tool.
C/SIDE Introduction
This intensely hands on class is designed to allow the student to see and
work with the whole development environment. Through a series of demonstrations
and labs the student will work with Forms, Pages, Tables, Codeunits, Reports,
Dataports, XMLPorts and the CAL programming language. While this course
is patterned after the Microsoft course, and some of their material will
be used, there will be lots of extra material. The extra material has been
developed and tested through many years and proven to be effective in helping
students get comfortable with the new system. Students who take this class
usually pass the Microsoft exam for certification first time out.
C/SIDE Development
While the first course is designed to teach the student the way around
the development system, this course is designed to teach how to successfully
add functionality to and modify base functionality in NAV. Through real
world projects and various demonstrations, the student will see how data
flows through NAV and how to modify it. Also covered will be Web Services,
SQL server for NAV and the new report writing tools for Visual Studio.
This class is more closely patterned after the Microsoft class and, since
the instructor wrote the current Certification Exam, students usually pass
it after taking the class.
Price
$1950.00 per student per course, three or more students from the same company
