In-person sessions help you learn about our solutions in a group setting, benefitting from discussions and hands-on demos, typically during Community Hour.
Virtual sessions are ideal for remote participants who learn by observing or for people with scheduling constraints.
Drop-in sessions are an opportunity to speak directly to experts and engage in person-to-person problem-solving.

Our self-paced offerings let you learn the material on your own schedule using on-demand features in our videos and resource guides.
Self-paced resources include Instructional Modules that we've created as well as course paths we recommend from LinkedIn Learning.
