VistA Foundations Course – Greg Kreis

Greg Kreis is legendary as the premier instructor when it comes to training
VistA developers and support personnel for VA. 
For the first time we have been able to sync his calendar and ours and he will
offer his VistA Foundations course compressed into three days, January 15-17,
right before VistA Community Meeting. It will be held at the Marriott Hotel
right across the street from the UC Davis Medical Education building where the
VistA Community Meeting will be held January 18-20, 2013.

Topics covered include:

  • VistA Architecture
  • MUMPS Environment
  • Programmer Conventions
  •  File Manager
  • Task Manager
  • Device Manager
  • Menu Manager
  • Security Manager
  • Programmer Tools
  • RPC Broker
  • Health Level 7
  • KIDS (software distribution)
    Patching
  • Diagnosing Problems

Students will have opportunities to explore the infrastructure modules and to
view VistA programs that use them through hands-on interaction with a VistA
system.

There is a catch, however. We need to schedule at least 10 people to take the
course before he can offer it and we have to have them signed up by December
14.

So, if you take a look at the web site and want to take the course, contact me
and as soon as we hit 10, we will open up the registration site and get you
registered. We don’t want to pay all of those credit card fees, etc., if we
don’t hit the required number.
