Hello,What are some IFS Academy courses that are beneficial to take for someone that is looking to get into IFS development/maintenance?

Hello IFS User Community,I am a member of an IFS Implementation project team, located in the UK, currently gearing up for our UK go-live.Following the UK go-live, the implementation project team then move onwards to our global IFS roll-out, implementing IFS across my organisation, with next step being IFS implementation across Australia and Singapore.In preparation for the implementation of IFS in the APAC region, are there any APAC-based IFS users on this User Community ? My intent of this question is simply to extend my working knowledge of global companies / organisations currently using IFS (outside of my current, albeit limited, knowledge of the UK IFS user base).Very many thanks in advance.

I was trying to figure out a learning pathway for an SCM Consultant and noticed this.   Can someone from the academy confirm that the above order is what I should follow to get all the certifications related to SCM?

There are several questions within the community where a link that begins with wit.ifsworld.com or docs.ifs.com has been offered as part of the solution. But when members click that link, they’ve been unable to login to see the content - even if they’re a customer or partner.

Some of the people who need their access removed might do damage if not acted sooner. Is there any known path to follow?
