What Is Progress Computer-based Training?

Progress Computer-based Training (CBT) courses are self-paced, interactive training solutions that offer learners a flexible, multimedia learning experience, when and where they need it. Learners will master interactive lessons, practicing their Progress skills in a safe, simulated environment. Interactive instruction is reinforced with the opportunity to practice many tasks in a live version of Progress.

Learners will launch Progress and practice the skills required using the Progress 4GL directly in the software. Hints and previews of each step guide learners along the way. Self-assessment of key topics and tasks is included within each lesson.

CBT students receive their own course CD from which they can run the training, or install the course files to their local machine.

Who Should Take CBT?

As an IT professional, you recognize the importance of building your technical skills and leveraging the power of your Progress-based applications to maintain your company's competitive edge in the marketplace. CBT offers you many benefits in order to remain current with the latest Progress technology.

Progress Software understands the value of your time. We have developed courses that enable you to learn the latest Progress technology at your convenience.

CBT is ideal for students who:

  • Are unable to attend Open Learning
  • Prefer, require, or enjoy the engaging and supportive environment provided by CBT
  • Like the idea of being able to learn at their own pace and on their own schedule
