DecisionSite Developer WBT

Spotfire DecisionSite Developers' Web-based Training is a scenario-based learning approach based on the principle of using professional problems for acquiring and integrating new knowledge. The emphasis is on learning taking place in the context of a real-life problem. The Developer is presented with the problem at the beginning of the module. The content of the module is based on the applications of the concept and theories learned in classroom-based training to the practical and real world problems DecisionSite developers are trying to solve. This approach to learning involves the developer in thinking things through and requires more involvement and produces greater depth of understanding. The experiential knowledge that is learned will last longer and is more significant to the developer than knowledge, which is simply 'transmitted' by the teacher or the book.
