Instructores

La gran mayoría de los cursos de IBM que ofrecemos están impartidos directamente por nuestros ingenieros. Solo así podemos garantizar la máxima calidad de los mismos. Complementamos todas las formaciones con materiales y laboratorios de elaboración propia, basados en nuestra experiencia durante los despliegues, migraciones y cursos que hemos realizado durante todos estos años.

Valor añadido

Nuestros cursos están profundamente orientados al rol a desempeñar. No es lo mismo las necesidades de dominio de una tecnología para un equipo de desarrolladores, que para las personas encargadas de desplegar y administrar la infraestructura. Es por ello que más allá de comandos y tareas, nos centramos en la resolución de los problemas que se presentan en el día a día de cada equipo. Proporcionándoles los conocimientos, competencias y habilidades requeridas para cada proyecto. Además nuestra documentación está basada en la última versión de cada producto.
