Details
This one day self-contained course is designed for those delegates who are responsible for the more advanced features of Magento such as running multiple stores and websites as well as getting in to some of the more interesting configuration features.
The primary aim of the course is give delegates the practical experience of creating multiple store views and websites from the one Magento configuration. The delegate will leave the course with the knowledge to implement multiple faced stores which can if required each run on their own currency with unique looks and product descriptions.
Our delegates come away with confidence in their ability to create and manage multiple stores within the Magento system.
Courses are a mixture of workshops and practical exercises to ensure the delegates get maximum exposure of the Magento system during our time together. By doing this they will get to know the system really well, safe in the knowledge that they are practicing on a dummy store.
This course is perfect for those who are involved in building new stores within Magento and should be familiar with the Magento back office system.
