Completed Courses & Workshops
SIF 3 Training Course – Melbourne – November 2018
Ahead of the SIF AU Community Day in Melbourne, Systemic provided a 2-day SIF3 Framework Training course. This course had two facets; one to train developers new to SIF and a second facet to provide a refresh to developers that had some previous experience in SIF. While the new developers were mainly trained in the usage of the SIF3 Frameworks (Java & .Net) the more experienced developers could concentrate on the implementation of new AU use-cases such as the Financial Questionnaire from the Australian Government.
