| What is Public Training? | ||
|---|---|---|
|
Public training is a training course taken by a mixed group of registrants with a set learning agenda. Public training is offered at lower costs because we are able to fill classes with people from various companies. Public training courses are also frequently offered virtually via video conference. Take a look at our recommend training partner websites for available public training offerings:

| What is Private training? |
|---|
|
Private training is a training course exclusive to your organization that can be tailored to your team’s needs drawing on our full course catalog content. Only your team members will be present for this training. This training offering allows your team to adjust the pace of the course and to ask questions specific to your training needs.
|
| What options are available between public and private training? |
|---|
|
Our course catalog for public and private training is similar. Public training is based on a standard learning curriculum and is offered on a periodic schedule based on demand and trainer availability. Private training can be purchased with extensive customizations and is available based on your team’s schedule and specific needs.
|
| What is the difference between training and consulting? |
|---|
|
The main difference between training and consulting is the curriculum. Training curriculum, even if customized, is based on a standard set of learning objectives applied generally. Consulting curriculum is specifically tailored to your individual use case.
|
| Where in the world do we offer training? |
|---|
|
We offer training globally.
|
| How much lead time do you need to schedule a Private training? |
|---|
|
Ideally three weeks is sufficient lead time to schedule Private training. Additional time is needed if the training needs to be customized and if the customized training requires coordination with the application developer.
|
| How many people can be in a Private training? |
|---|
|
Our standard training is designed and priced for up to 10 students. We can accommodate up to 12 in a single course at an additional fee. For multi day trainings, students can attend the days that are relevant to them.
|
| For customized training, what do you need in order to prepare for a training? |
|---|
|
When preparing for a customized training, Acquia will need the following from your team: Stable training environment to be used for the training, what your learning objectives are for the training, and tour of the site developer to understand the site development.
