The Creating Universes with Business Objects Designer XI V3 computer-based training CBT contains hours of interactive video instruction on over 80 different topics. Each topic discusses or demonstrates important aspects of universe design. The CBT interface is innovative and user-friendly, allowing students to browse chapter folders to locate topic icons.
