We love sharing our knowledge & enthusiasm for the FileMaker platform

We offer FileMaker training classes for learners of all abilities, from brand-new Claris FileMaker users to experienced developers. We regularly offer classes at the employee, beginner, intermediate and advanced levels, and we offer organization-specific training sessions as well. We’ve recently added a FileMaker Certification Path offering as well, for any students wishing to pursue a career as a FileMaker developer. Our classes can be a great way to introduce the Claris platform to new employees, develop a new (useful!) hobby, a new work skill, or broaden your horizons as a developer yourself. We’d love to help you achieve your FileMaker-related goals.

Our FileMaker training classes are taught by experts in the field, that are well-equipped to answer any and all of your questions about UI/UX design, improving performance, data structure and more. We also welcome our students to join our FileMaker Meetup group, the Claris Developers Bridge Network.
