Perforce Software Launches Instructor-led Online Courses Starting December 2009

“Quality instructor-student interaction is critical to successful virtual learning,” said Gerry Thompson, Senior Perforce Trainer. “We carefully chose the hands-on activities and developed the various online technologies to ensure we deliver a high quality learning experience equal to what we provide in our classroom setting.”

How it Works

A live instructor teaches each course on a specific day and time and most content is identical to its classroom equivalent, including student materials and course duration. Modest connectivity requirements let students participate from practically anywhere, with lectures and discussions facilitated by GoToMeeting and a virtual lab environment provided by Skytap to complete hands-on activities. All training materials – student handbook, exercises and solutions – are provided electronically.

The new online instructor-led training schedule begins in December and is available across multiple time zones.
