Novell Releases Seven New Developer Education Courses
Courses Provide Technical Training for NetWare Developers

PROVO, Utah--October 12, 1992--Novell today announced the
availability of seven new courses designed to simplify
application development in the NetWare environment. The courses
were developed by Novell's Education and Database Products
Divisions. They are designed to help developers produce highly
specialized NetWare-based applications that meet customers'
needs.

"Novell offers these courses to support developers who can then
provide customers with specialized applications optimized for
NetWare," says Carolyn Rose, vice president, education. "NetWare
customers have access to the most advanced networking technology
available supported by a diverse menu of network applications.

development process ."

Application developers writing to the NetWare environment are
presented with a unique opportunity for market penetration due
to the sizable installed base of NetWare and the large amount of
existing Btrieve data.

"The classes I've taken help me develop applications right the
first time," says Jim King, application developer for Diatek
Medical Technology, Inc. "The benefit to our customers is an
error-free application that works right from the start."

"NetWare is a rich, full-featured application development
environment that enables developers to produce business
solutions targeted to the needs of NetWare customers. Supporting
the development of business applications integrated with NetWare
is a key focus for Novell. These new developer courses will help
developers produce those applications ," according to Willie
Tejada, director of developer relations, NetWare Systems Group.
