MENTORED FILEMAKER TRAINING

Mentored FileMaker training is one-to-one training with an experienced, fully accredited FileMaker developer, who will work with you to achieve your business needs. Whether that’s helping to plan and build an application alongside you from scratch, shedding light on some of the more complex FileMaker development techniques so you’re able to use them on an existing application yourself or working with you to avoid any potential pitfalls when planning a complex piece of functionality for a legacy system. If you need a FileMaker expert who can sidestep the technical jargon and explain FileMaker’s extraordinary capabilities to you in plain English, mentored training is for you.

Why choose mentored FileMaker training?

Maybe you’ve considered doing some FileMaker Training previously. Or perhaps you’ve thought about hiring a third-party developer to help you get a piece of functionality over the line. Our mentored training provision gives you the best of both worlds. In working alongside you on your own business application, we don’t only resolve some of the issues you have come across, we also explain our reasoning behind the decisions we make, show you new development techniques, answer any questions you might have and highlight current best practice as we go along – all at a pace dictated by you. By the end of a session, you won’t have simply ticked off some items on your to do list, you will be empowered to tackle more items when your developer is not there.

Who delivers our FileMaker Training?

All of our trainers are fully FileMaker-accredited and we actively develop FileMaker solutions for a wide range of clients. We are not simply trainers who have memorised the FileMaker training series handbook, we work on solving complex business solutions day-to-day in a huge breadth of industries, which means we’re up-to-speed on the latest innovations in the FileMaker platform. The chances are, if you’ve hit a brick wall with a piece of development, we’ve faced that wall before and we already know how to scale it.

Mark is our lead FileMaker trainer at We Know Data. He is fully accredited in FileMaker 11, 12, 13, 15, 16 and 17 and has been building FileMaker databases since 2002.

Who could benefit from FileMaker Training?

We can deliver to one person or to a small group of people. Whether you’re an in-house developer for a company who wants to evaluate your current systems and plan a roadmap to take it forwards. Or a small business owner whose bespoke system doesn’t quite do what you need it to. Or one of FileMaker’s army of “citizen developers”, who has started building an application but has reached an impasse. We believe you can benefit hugely from mentored training.

What are the

next steps?

Book a free 1 hour consultation session with one of our trainers to discuss your training needs further. There’s no obligation to book any further sessions after our initial consultation, but we can answer any questions you may have and help you to clarify whether our mentored training approach would work for you.

When can we do FileMaker training?

Once we know more about what you need, we will work with you to schedule it in for the most convenient time for you. Please note this is only applicably during UK office hours. We can plan a one-off session, a group of days, or even a long-term programme of support, which allows you to try out some of the techniques we discuss before reconvening for the next session. We will accommodate whatever you feel will most benefit you.

Where does this FileMaker training take place?

As with anything related to mentored training, we are more than happy to tailor the provision to suit your specific business needs. We can deliver training on-site in your offices, or we can do it remotely using Skype, Webex or TeamViewer – whichever is more convenient.
