I have been receiving several requests to create a structured learning path that can guide both beginners and experienced teams in Business Application ERP consulting. The idea is to provide a framework where learners can advance based on their expertise level whether they are starting out or already working with Business Central, Dynamics NAV, or Navision.
This learning path will be especially useful for those who want to deepen their knowledge, explore advanced functionalities in the latest versions, and gain more confidence as Technical or Functional Consultants.
