I recently taught the first delivery of the online advanced development course. This technical course has been completely revamped to reflect the new functionalities delivered with the 2.50 release of Openbravo ERP and also follows a more consistent learning methodology. The class was a success but even more, fun to teach.
Technical courses are always a bit harder to convert to online because publishing a bunch of powerpoints or videos just doesn't cut it. Anyone with a technical background will tell you that getting your hands dirty with practical examples wins over theory any time.
That is why we've joined a few widely available technologies together in order to design a course that is far better than an average online course with slides and videos:

That is why we've joined a few widely available technologies together in order to design a course that is far better than an average online course with slides and videos:
- using the Wiki, we've incorporated many Howto guides into our public Developer's Manual; this is the first step towards learning a topic, step by step
- each student is provided with their own cloud instance of Openbravo ERP where development must be done; these instances are accessed, troubleshot and graded by an Openbravo Training Specialist.
- using an open source elearning platform (www.moodle.org), a virtual classroom is formed where practical assignments are given, results are submitted and problems discussed
Here is a testimonial from one of our students:
The Online Advanced Development course allowed me to learn all the possibilities that Openbravo ERP offers to developers. The knowledge acquired in the course will serve me as a strong foundation to create a vertical for Openbravo ERP, as well as new modules that extend the capabilities of the system.
Attending the online course has given me the flexibility to follow my own study schedule while meeting the priorities and needs of my company. The course is organized so you are not required to attend during working hours, but can devote time in the evenings or on weekends to your studies.

If you would like to be one of them and learn the advance development capabilities of Openbravo ERP such as modularity, manual coding, background jobs, webservices and more, visit http://www.openbravo.com/services/training/#two .
We're looking forward to seeing you in one of our classrooms,
