Systems and Developer Training Services

Focal Point specializes in providing onsite developer and systems technical training for our corporate clients around the globe. All our courses are taught by some of the world's most knowledgeable instructors, many of whom have participated in developing the technologies themselves. Our Instructors are highly respected authors, developers, and lecturers in their respective fields (see the biography pages on this site). Now, Focal Point assists to enable small to medium size corporations afford "World Class Training" at their site and within budget on today's leading edge developer and systems platforms and technologies.

Courseware is another important component in the training arena. The courseware we utilize has either been developed by our own "World Class Instructor" staff or tailored to our needs by some the most respected Information Technology course development organizations in the business. Our specialized course delivery methodologies pay special attention to addressing "Real World" issues, rather than the 'A through Z' scenarios which have a tendency to overload students with information on how to handle situations that they will rarely encounter. All of our classes are extremely well paced and focused, and are geared toward targeting topical areas which will ensure immediate productivity upon course completion.

    Because every corporate client has their own specific needs, Focal Point has demonstrated for the last nine years its ability to custom develop curricula for any specific requirement, and develop it in a minimum amount of time. We've been known to have developed specialized materials in as little as three weeks for special events and needs! So if your organization would like training ONLY in special or specific areas, we'd be more than able to accommodate you at a nominal additional fee.
