Our curriculum includes the use of modern development tools such as Azure DevOps, Git and Docker to effectively introduce you to the Business Central development environment. In addition to AL programming, you will also gain an understanding of current development processes and best practices.
To give you a practical insight, the course content is illustrated and consolidated through numerous examples, exercises and homework. You will be able to expand your ERP system with additional functions and immediately put what you have learned into practice.
Please note that the implementation of reports is not part of this course.
Classification: AL has been present in the Microsoft Dynamics 365 world since version NAV2018 and served as an alternative to the previous programming language "C/AL". It enabled both the expansion and customization of Business Central through classic "programming in Object Designer" and the development of extensions and apps in AL, which significantly improved the update capability. With the 2019 release Wave 2 (Business Central 15), "C/AL" was finally abolished.
The training is divided into six blocks of four hours each (09:00 to 13:00) and takes place as follows:
01/22/25, 01/24/25, 01/29/25, 01/31/25, 02/05/25, 02/07/25
