Main goal: expanding ServiceNow competences

Volkswagen Group Services in Poland decided to participate in the ServiceNow workshops to continue learning about the platform and the possibility of automating processes within the organization using cross-system integrations during company projects’ realization.

Workshops

We took a holistic view of integration from business requirements to technical implementation during two days of productive training. Our starting point was finding ways of defining requirements and expectations in integration projects. After that, we went through the topics related to security and finally put the whole theory into practice. Basic ServiceNow training program covered: 

  • What are Integrations? What is their value? 
  • Different Types of Integrations 
  • Integration Patterns  
  • Integration Tools  
  • How does ServiceNow handle Integrations?  

Our perspective

Adam Bernaś

Our training journey with VW lasts at least 5 years. We’ve been conducting SysAdmin, Platform Foundations, and Advanced Admin classes for different teams, mainly on-site, in Shared Service premises. I recall from these initiatives a group of skilled professionals who actively participated throughout the entire training. It was a pleasure to cooperate and see the results.
