GRC Training Resources

Does anyone know of any resources that are able to provide GRC training for a team within a company? We have looked into training for Oracle but it would be way outside of our price range. We would prefer instructor led courses, be them online or on site.
Any and all recommendations would be appreciated.
Thank You

I offer training using UPK Training Documentation with Access to our GRC Sandbox for AACG, ETCG, CCG and PCG.

Weblogic Server self-training resources

Could anyone point me in the direction some good self-training resources (books, CBT's, etc.) for Weblogic Server - preferably 8.1? We're getting our feet wet with a third-party app that incorporates Weblogic Server 8.1, but we have no experience with it.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Making The Switch | Training Resources?

Greetings:
I've finally decided to jump from FCP7 to FCPX. I know there have been several updates and improvements since the initial release.
My question is, what training resources will provide me with the most updated information to learn FCPX? For the record I love Diana Weynand's Apple Training, but I'm thinking the book is a bit outdated now. Also love Larry Jordan and the stuff he does. Someone also suggested lynda.com. I'm a bit out of the loop on the best training resources. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Wanna' get as much as I can out of my training...
Thanks!

There's a list of training and other resources here: http://fcpx.tv/fcp/index.html I don't know how up to date this list is (It says September but no year listed) but the resources are still good.
I'm a member of Lynda.com. The training is very good but their courses lag behind the changes in FCP X by several months.
The most up to date info in paid training is Larry Jordan and Ripple Training. Both linked on resource page mentioned above.
Also check out the Macbreak Studio podcast from the Pixelcorps http://www.pixelcorps.tv/macbreak_studio This video podcast is done by the Ripple Training guys and provides some great tips on new features.

Training resources for CRM

Hi all,
It would be great if anyone can guide me to the in-depth training resources available for CRM 7.0, apart from the OKP maps and the detailed presentations. Are there any trainings in the form of webex/SAP tutor sessions?
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Looking for Xcode training resource using C++

I have been programming for over twenty years in the CAD (Computer Aided Design) field, and I would like to start programming on the Mac. I have owned various Apple computers since 1987 (Apple IIGS, SE30, ... G5), and I used to code on the Mac using Hypercard back in the late 80'sm early 90's. But all my work related programming has been on other computers, UNIX based, DEC VAX, and now for the last ten years the PC using Microsoft Visual Studio and .NET 2003. I'm really not that old, I just started coding when I was very young.
I have always loved the Mac and it is the only computer I have at home. So now I want to start using the Xcode environment. But I would really rather just stick with C++ since that is what I've been using for the last decade or so.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a good resource (book, manual, etc.) that teaches the Xcode environment using C++ instead of Objective-C?
Thanks much,
Tom

Xcode is just an IDE. You probably need to make a decision about what API or application framework you want to use.
If you really must use C++, you'll probably have to use Carbon, which exports C APIs. There are some cross-platform app frameworks in C++, such as Qt or wxWidgets, but they're either not free or provide a poor user experience. There don't really seem to be any recent books which detail modern best practices in Carbon, but take a look at http://www.carbondev.com/site/?page=CarbonBooks
Most people coming to the platform go down the Cocoa route. Really, if you know C (which you do if you know C++) and you are comfortable with OO concepts, then learning the Obj-C language is just a case of sitting down with Apple's guide for an afternoon. Cocoa brings lots of new concepts to the table, but you'll have an initial barrier to learning an API/framework whatever you go with... Sticking to C++ because it's "what you know" is almost certainly disingenuous.
If you really do just want to learn the IDE, then there are various books which cover Xcode and the associated development tools. See http://www.carbondev.com/site/?page=Xcode+Books

Beginner training resources

Greetings RoboHelpers,
I've recently downloaded a trial copy of RoboHelp 9 and am just trying to get oriented. My help production system is currently based on Frame 8 and Quadralay WebWorks, so at least I have some single-sourcing experience.
I've been plowing through the product help, but as the "Getting Started" section doesn't actually seem to provide much meaningful assistance in terms of ... well, actually "getting started", I was wondering if there's not some basic resource somewhere that would walk one through setting up a project, mapping styles and generating some basic output, etc. to start getting a feel for the product.
I dabbled with RoboHelp years back prior to the Adobe aquisition - it certainly seems to be vastly more extensive compared to those early days. In particular, I'm hoping that RoboHelp is more customization-friendly than WebWorks, which I've been finding to be too kludgey and brittle in many respects. I appreciate any tutorial suggestions anyone might have, as well as any input w/respect to the whole WebWorks v. RoboHelp question!
Cheers, Brian S.

There's also a bunch of stuff on Peter Grainge's website (grainge.org) and Rick's RoboWizard site (robowizard.com).

ACE Certification training resources

Hi Everyone
I am studying to become ACE certified in flash cs3 and am
looking from some resources to help me along the way.
I have got flash - classroom in a book
But was looking for something more along the lines of some of
the books for the older version of flash such as
Flash mx 2004 Certified Study Guide
I have looked around but can't seem to find anything similar
for cs3 version, does anyone know of anything.
I want to get an idea of what sort of questions are going to
come up.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Matt

This has been discussed over at Photoshop and the Illy forums. There's no easy answer. The ACE exam words questions badly, vaguely, and convolutedly. I took the PS exam about 8 years ago and passed but some of the questions were so poorly worded I could barely understand what they wanted. Plus some questions dig into the most unused or hidden features of the app.
My advice is to use every aspect of the program possible. Really. Every funky weird thing, no matter how trivial. - Color settings, XML, swf/flash export, tables, output options, etc etc.
Also ask yourself if you are taking this for personal satisfaction or you can get immediate employment improvement/opportunity.

JDeveloper Training Resource

Is there any good training Material for JDeveloper 3.1?
Also i want to know is there any CBT or Book to teach me for obtaining OCP Java 2A skill.
Thanks in advance

Currently, the 3.1 tutorial is a good source.
We are finalizing a Web-based course on JDeveloper 3.1, which should be available in the next month.
As for certification test preparation, the "Candidate Guide" lists all recommended books, sites, etc, for preparation of each test. You can download the Candidate Guide from: http://education.oracle.com/certification/javatrack.html

Training resources for Motion 3

It seems the availability of tutorials for Motion 3 are taking quite a while to make an appearance.
Anyone know of any good books, training DVD's or tutorials for Motion 3?
I have already viewed the two tutorials from a previous thread from dvcreators.

I know what you mean.
Here's a story about the importance of having training materials available. Back in the mid 90s there weren't a lot of choices for creating 3D on the Macintosh. As I recall there was something like 3 programs available for the Mac. So I purchased a program called Strata Studio Pro. Which seemed to be the most popular at the time. Later I discovered there were virtually NO training materials available. There was ONE book and a magazine that Strata put out. And that was it. Nothing else.
Seeing how I couldn't learn it in my spare time, I just gave up on that program and purchased Lightwave instead. Lightwave was available on the PC for years before it got ported over to the Mac. So there were plenty of books available. Since then Strata just sorta' faded away. Nobody talks about it. Nobody uses it. You don't see it advertised anywhere. And although they're still in business, at one time they could've dominated the Mac market, instead they went nowhere.
So I hope Apple can see the importance of having training materials available and does everything they can to promote Motion's use. Because I'd hate to have purchased another Strata Studio Pro.

Are there any video based tutorials with accompanying video files that can be used to learn iMovie?
Thanks.

Youtube has a million tutorial videos for imovies. Most are very repetative though

Encountering error in creating a new resource

Hi All,
I am encountering the following error when I try to create a new resource.
The data that defines the flexfield on this field may be inconsistent. Inform your system administrator that the function: KeyFlexfieldDefinitionFactory.StructureValue.createBaseValue could not find the structure definition for the flexfield specified by Application = OTA, Code = RES and Structure number = 101
Apparently there is a problem with one of my Training Resource KFF structures.
If someone has any solutions to this error, please share.
Thanks
- Manish

Hi Vikas,
Thanks for replying.
I populated the 'Meaning' Column in RESOURCE_TYPE lookup with the values which are same as the name of structure.
Recompiled the KFF as well.
But still encountering the same error.
Should I rather populate the same values in "Code" column ?
Regards
- Manish

How to review training videos?

Hello,
I'm reviewing a coworker's training videos and am new to this. What criteria should I use in reviewing a demonstration-based training video?
I think in order to provide effective feedback, I need a list of elements that make good training videos. Would anyone know a website or book that explains what makes a good training video GREAT?
Also, is there a section on this site that can provide feedback on training videos?
Thanks!

Hi there,
It might help if we knew what the subject of your co-workers training videos is. I'm guessing from what you've said that you're talking about a video training course where the presenter narrates a screencast (a recording of their screen), to explain the software. Correct me if I'm wrong about that.
I've been looking at video training courses for Photoshop Elements and Photoshop for three or four years now - I even produced one a few years back - so I know what it's like from both the student and the teacher's point of view. In four years, this is the best Photoshop Elements video training course I've seen by far.
You asked what criteria you should use in reviewing - here are some of the guidelines I lay down on that page:
1) A great training course has to use screencast video - You could follow a text guide, but why not just go and buy a manual or an 'X for dummies' guide if you're going to do that - video is the best way to illustrate and communicate training advice for products as complicated as Adobe Photoshop.
2) A great training course should cover all angles - This is a balance. The training course must be complete without being comprehensive. It should be complete, so that no major section of the product is missed out - there's nothing more frustrating than finding out at the end that the trainer isn't going to address what you're interested in. But the training almost certainly shouldn't be comprehensive. Taking Photoshop Elements as an example, if the trainer explicitly mentions every single mode that every single tool can be used in, every keyboard shortcut, every menu item, every dialog ... you get the point ... the training will end up causing A) information overload, and B) boredom! The training should provide good coverage of the program (good breadth), with an appropriate level of detail (fair depth).
3) In the same vein, some of the Photoshop Elements training I've watched has been agonizingly boring! The training should be broken down into sections of a sensible size, and each one should leave you begging for more. The training should be fun! And the trainer should communicate in a way that makes the training easily understandable - people will benefit from and enjoy the training a lot more if the instructions and descriptions are clear and easy to follow.
4) As in any presentation, think about the target audience. Is it meant to be an 'absolute beginners Photoshop Elements training course', or should the title be 'Advanced Photoshop Elements training for guru-grand-masters'? Is it just for those using Windows, or just for those using Mac? Try to review the training with a target audience in mind, so you can assess whether it meets their needs. Like me, you might even want to buy or sample other video training courses to see how they compare.
5) Finally, good training doesn't always have to be free, but it shouldn't cost the earth either. The Photoshop Elements training I review here costs $49.95. That's a reasonable price for what is a really excellent training resource. But asking someone to pay hundreds and hundreds of dollars for training is rarely appropriate, perhaps with the exception of a face-to-face training course. Make great content, and then over-deliver on all your promises to the consumer, at a price that they simply can't get over - then let them rave about it to all their friends. =)
One more good tip: I mentioned training books above - visit your local bookshop or library and grab a training book on the product (so for example I might do an Amazon search for 'PSE8 for dummies', see what's about, then pop to Waterstones to flick through a copy) - see what topics THEY cover. See the level of detail they give. If you had to honestly recommend a product to someone, would it be the book or the training course? It's a nice easy metric to judge how valuable the training really is.
You asked about a section on the site where people can provide feedback on training videos - I actually have a section for that on my site. You can post and discuss Photoshop Elements training reviews here, and Photoshop training reviews here. I'd love to hear about any resources that you think are worth mentioning.
I hope that helps. All the best, Rob.
PS. Just a tip: In general, don't cross-post the same question over several different forum areas. =)

Best CS4 online training

Hi everyone,
I am new to CS4 but have just purchased photoshop, dreamweaver, Illustrator, etc...because I want to create a website from scratch.
I have built websites before using front-end applications but have never had full access to the source code on my PC.
I have quite a bit of HTML knowledge, but I am an absolute beginner at CS4 products.
I have used some of the training videos on this website but I find they aren't quite enough for an absolute beginner; there are missing pieces and I find it hard to put it all together given my limited knowledge.
Can anybody recommend good online training resources for beginners? I have looked at www.linda.com but I'm not sure how much better it would be to pay $375.00 per year for access to the training videos when many of the same vidoes are available on the adobe website free.
I would greatly appreciate any recommendations
thanks

I have yet to be impressed with any one training program that does it all. Photoshop and Illustrator are sophisticated graphics apps. Dreamewaver is a sophisticated Web authoring tool. That said, if you have a good knowledge of HTML and CSS and how these two things work together in the various browser, you are 75% ahead on the "DW learning curve." There are many on-line tutorials to help you. A Google search for tutorials in PhotoShop and Illustrator will reveal many sites.
Don't bite off more than you can chew at a time. Focus on one application. When that starts to gel, move on to the others. Following are links to web-related sites that you should reference and bookmark.

Online training - through professional webcasts

Hi all,
I've been looking around for on-line training webinars of professional quality, the closest that I've found are sites such as Parleys.com -
but they aren't really training sessions per say.
That has made me start to wonder whether there is a market for me to do my own professional webinars at a nominal fee - say £10 per session! My goal would be to set a price that permits individuals to purchase training sessions, simply by reducing the cost to the minimum but increasing the number of people in the webcast.
I've had the luxury of being to Learning-Tree courses, costing my employer £3,000+. As an individual, I would love to go again, but
alas my employer is not likely to send me any time soon, I also personally don't have that sort of money to spend!
I would love to hear your thoughts, in particular it would be great if you could spend some time completing this [Quick Online Survey|http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/KSJPB58]?
I do appreciate that you might want to just reply here instead, either way, your feedback would be very much appreciated.
If you do know of any good training resources that go in to depth, I'd love to know too!
Regards,
Rob - SpikyOrange.

So, if you were able to subscribe to a training course that provided the course in PDF format,.. I detest PDF as well. About the only thing they are good for is printing, and I have already killed enough trees while printing program listings in my 'youth'.
What I like, as documents, are documents that will stretch (or squeeze) to whatever screen width I am willing to devote to the viewer at that instant, with hyper-links so I can jump around the document, that I can easily resize the text of, and preferably with a 'search' facility and bookmarks. The first parts of that can be accomplished using HTML (so long as the author/editing software was not trying to force an HTML document into some idiotic 'ideal screen size'). The latter parts can be provided by wrapping the HTML in JavaHelp.
..but backed by videos, then you wouldn't be interested in the webinar itself? .. Do you mean a streamed webcast? Not really. With bloody videos, I find myself spending more time fast forwarding/rewinding to get to the bit I want, than I do watching them.
By webinar I have more the impression of a web conference, with real live people at the other end. For such interactive help I prefer email - which allows me to get my thoughts straight, before making a complete fool of myself.
..In some ways, this is better news, I can create the material and have an online purchasing system and my time after that is in improving the tutorial rather than presenting it over and over again.
Would you prefer PDF or printed material - i.e. a printed book with the full course in it (I personally hate reading from the screen).I detest reading on a page, that which I could have read on my screen at any size that suits me.
But note, I do not claim to speak for anyone but me.
