Since we are still in the planning phase of such training, we would appreciate your feedback.

What content would you like in such a training?
How should the training program be made?
How much interaction with the instructor would be needed? (important for the pricing of the service)
Other inputs on how we can conduct online training with eZ publish?

This can help us make a better training.

Thanks
Aleksander

To Alexander:

I guess the best would be interactive tutorials/modules targeted at different user/admin levels and skills required. Also the interactivity could be with different levels: from multiple choice review questions at different stages to more complicated assignments with instructor feedback.

Modules could include:

For "new" users:

1) Basic setup and administration
2) Basic template language and possibilities
3) Creating classes and associated template functionality
4) Multi-language aspects

Intermediate development:

5) Implementing workflow/ creating new events/triggers
6) Creating operators and new datatypes and show the possibilities to expand functionality with a minimum of programming

Advanced development:
7) Creating new modules
8) Create new handlers for existing modules
9) Using SOAP and other ways of connecting ez publish to the outside world (I mean other software)

For levels of interactivity:
- multiple choice review questions (no instructor)
- minimal feedback by instructor on assignments (on the end-result only, pointing to possible improvements)
- thorough guidance, but I guess that's what the support system is meant for.
