Who should attend a self-paced training?

A self-paced training is ideal for tech professionals who can work independently and only need a little support throughout the training to learn the content and complete the lab exercises.

My colleagues and I want to sign up as a team and learn together. Is this possible?

No, self-paced training is only for individual students who each learn at their own pace. Please consider a classroom training instead.
