We are pleased to announce that following the acquisition of Software AG webMethods products into IBM, we have made all webMethods learning content available via IBM Learning

Here are a few commonly asked questions about the migration:

What is changing?

While the basic level training will remain free of charge, intermediate level training is now fee based. These courses can either be instructor-led delivery or as a self-paced collection via the IBM Learning Subscriptions. 

Why are we moving to a fee-based offering?

We are continually investing in enhancing our education services and providing you with the best content and including hands-on labs.

What is an IBM Learning Subscription? Why consider one? 

Continuous learning is key to staying ahead in a world where technology evolves at lightning speed. To keep pace with change, IBM has Individual and Enterprise Learning Subscriptions. Individuals and business clients who subscribe can learn deep product and technical knowledge:

  • 12 months access to the entire IBM self-paced learning catalog
  • Individual Learning Subscription includes access to the IBM role-based content on Coursera, at no extra cost.
  • More courses mean more learning opportunities for everyone
  • As you strive to learn more about IBM’s products, you will have learning content on hand to dive into, particularly on relevant Integration topics such as IBM MQ, App Connect Enterprise, API Connect, and much more.
