About the Manual
The FME Server training manual is yours to keep. It includes detailed material to help you remember your training.
During training we suggest you pay close attention to your instructor; they may cover the course content in a different order than the manuals, and will skip or add new content to better customize the course to your needs.
You’ll find most of the instructor’s PowerPoint slides reproduced in your manuals, as above. This will help you relate the manual content to the topic the instructor is discussing.
