Blended Learning

This training is provided in a blended learning format, where self-study is combined with classroom training days. Prior to each classroom training day, participants independently study the corresponding learning material online. During the training day, this material is then covered in class in summary form. In doing so, we explain important topics, give relevant practical examples and discuss the associated exercises.

To limit classroom training time, and therefore costs, BPM Company offers this blended learning variant. For participants with no or limited development experience, this form of training is strongly recommended. The classroom part helps participants to better understand the material thanks to the explanation of an experienced Pega consultant, group discussions, practical exercises, sharing of practical experiences and personal guidance where necessary.
