Audience/Attendees
This training is aimed at developers who want to learn how to create solid applications or systems connecting to and working on a variety of databases, using the in-the-box FireDAC framework.
Previous knowledge
The course requires programming experience, preferably Delphi. But it does not require knowledge of building database systems.
Practical
The course will be with as much hands-on as possible. I encourage you to bring a laptop with Delphi installed and follow along.
