Introducing new AppDynamics University courses: Short Focused Topics (SFTs)

Introducing our latest AppDynamics University courses for those who want to attend shorter, single-topic sessions.

 

In this article:


 

What are Short Focused Topics (SFTs)?

We recognize that our learners can’t always allocate time to attend half-day, full-day, or multiple-day training sessions. To solve this, we’ve launched new, shorter, instructor-led training sessions. 

These Short Focused Topics (SFTs) are available to users with a Premium University Subscription. They are 60-90 minutes long and include demos and labs. All SFTs are delivered with the same high-caliber instruction that we use in our longer format courses. Each course will focus on a specific topic or task to get you working in that area of the product quickly and proficiently. 

The following topics are available on the training schedule and more courses will be added regularly.
