| Delivery: Online & on-site** | Course length in days: 2 |
Target audience
This advanced course is designed for Financial model developers, implementers, and financial system integrators.
Desired Prerequisites:
You should have:
- Foundations of RiskWatch
- thorough knowledge of C++
- working knowledge of Unix
- basic understanding of finance
Instructors
The great majority of the IBM courses we offer are taught directly by our engineers. This is the only way we can guarantee the highest quality. We complement all the training with our own materials and laboratories, based on our experience during the deployments, migrations and courses that we have carried out during all these years.
Added value
Our courses are deeply role oriented. To give an example, the needs for technology mastery are different for developer teams and for the people in charge of deploying and managing the underlying infrastructure. The level of previous experience is also important and we take it very seriously. That is why beyond (boring) commands and tasks, we focus on solving the problems that arise in the day to day of each team. Providing them with the knowledge, competencies and skills required for each project. In addition, our documentation is based on the latest version of each product.
