Whether you’re a developer looking to build your skills or an organization growing a capable team, WSO2 training and certification can help. They can improve how you work with WSO2 products, strengthen your career prospects, and support your long-term professional growth.
Training and certification help you:
1. Use WSO2 products more effectively
WSO2 products solve complex problems. Training and certification build the skills you need to use their features fully, troubleshoot faster, and deliver better results for your organization.
2. Apply WSO2 products to the right use cases
As you learn products like WSO2 API Manager, WSO2 Integrator, WSO2 Identity Server, and the AI-native WSO2 Developer Platform (formerly Choreo), you’ll understand where each one fits. That knowledge helps your organization choose the right solution for API management, integration, identity and access management, and internal developer platform use cases.
3. Strengthen your career prospects
Certification shows your commitment to your role, especially if your organization uses WSO2 products. It can also open the door to promotions and new job opportunities.
Read on to explore the types of training we offer and find the option that suits you best.
Types of training
Every developer learns differently, so we offer three types of training. You can learn on your own with self-paced training, get extra support in online instructor-led sessions, or learn in person with onsite instructor-led training.
1. Self-paced training
Self-paced training is our most popular option with developers, thanks to its flexibility. You can access our courses on the WSO2 Online Training Platform.
Benefits:
- Free of charge: You can build your skills at no cost.
- Flexible: You can learn at your own pace, whenever and wherever suits you.
- Focused: You work through the material on your own, so you can concentrate on what you need.
Self-paced training also comes with challenges. You’ll need to set aside time to study and troubleshoot issues on your own. If you get stuck, our community on Discord and Stack Overflow can help. If you’d prefer more interaction, instructor-led training may suit you better.
2. Online instructor-led training
Our online instructor-led training is more interactive than self-paced training, with real-time guidance from our trainers.
Benefits:
- Real-time interaction: You can get answers to your questions right away, troubleshoot issues with a trainer, and build a deeper understanding of the products.
- Flexible: You can combine it with self-paced training, covering standard topics on your own and booking sessions for the topics you find hardest.
- Lower cost: Online training costs less than onsite training.
Considerations:
- Some hands-on exercises are harder to support online.
- Individual attention is limited, since screen sharing by trainees would disrupt the session.
- You’ll need a reliable internet connection to avoid connectivity and audio or video issues.
3. Onsite instructor-led training
Our onsite instructor-led training is the most hands-on option, with trainers at your premises.
Benefits:
- Face-to-face interaction: You can ask questions and get answers in person.
- More hands-on support: A lab assistant works alongside the main trainer during exercises.
- Tailored content: Training can be customized to your use cases and challenges.
Considerations:
- It costs more than online training.
- Your team needs to set aside full days for the sessions.
Whichever option you choose, WSO2 training gives you the skills to make the most of our products.
