training is free.\u00a0 The online content consists of sets of videotaped sessions created from screencams and slideware.\u00a0 One obvious aim of the site is to promote webMethods and ZapThink products and consulting, but\u00a0the\u00a0site\u00a0is very effective as an on-demand training tool consisting of very short easily digestible training sessions\u00a0that help\u00a0bring people up to speed on topics like SOA and Governance.<\/p>\n<div class=\"lightsocial_container\"><div class=\"lightsocial_element\"><a class=\"lightsocial_a\"
