the database. Learn how to
build functions and design screens based on the business relationships
in your data model, and then generate and compile your source code.

CA Plex Foundations is the initial course in
the CA®
Plex Learning Path. The focus of this course is on establishing
the fundamental knowledge and skills needed to develop powerful business
applications in Plex. Participants

development process. First,
they will learn the basics of local and group models, and how to set up
your development environment. Next,
they will learn how to customize panels and functions through the use of
patterns. Lastly, they will
generate source and compile a complete application, finishing the course
with a working sample application to reference.
CA Plex Foundations is a five day course.
This course expands on the “CA Plex
Foundations” course, and describes the complete pattern library
available with CA® Plex.
Using “hands on” techniques, students will learn the
architecture, purpose, content, appropriate use, and manipulation of the
most used design patterns. When they are finished, they will understand
how to extend patterns through specialization and replacement.
CA Plex Patterns is a three day course.
Our CA Plex Model Management course provides
a solid foundation for CA Repository Management by presenting
CA® Plex team development concepts such as managing
users, managing sub models, re-pointing libraries, and managing data
environments (verb groups, diagram types, control states).
Additionally, participants will learn conflict resolution, levels and
versions, national languages, variants, permissions, and object
flagging. At the end of the course, model managers and team
leads will have the tools necessary to productively manage a multi-user
development environment.
CA Plex Model Management is a two day course.
This course builds on the knowledge and skills
gained from the “CA Plex Foundations” and “CA Plex
Patterns” courses, as it delves more deeply into the techniques
necessary to produce complex, real world applications.
Participants will be introduced to advanced UI features such as
data controls, hierarchies, and COM / JavaBeans components.
Complex action diagram logic and debugging will be addressed.
By the end of the course, they will be comfortable developing a
production quality system.
