It’s Back to School for Testers: Welcome to the New BlazeMeter University

It’s that time of year again. Students of all ages are heading back to school to jump back into their studies and all the activities that go along with this busy time of year. Some students are just starting out in grade school while others are in college and pursuing advanced degrees.

As we know, studying should be a lifelong endeavor, especially in the technology field where we need to keep our skills sharp if we are to remain competitive and valuable to our employer.

At BlazeMeter University our aim is to help you improve your testing skills and improve your knowledge to reach whatever goals you and your teams have. To improve the learning experience, we have added new BlazeMeter University courses and made important UX adjustments to our site.

Let us take a closer look at what else is new with BlazeMeter University.

Why Take a BlazeMeter University Course?

Whether you’re looking to level up your open source, DevOps, or BlazeMeter skills, BlazeMeter University is the place for you.

There are many reasons to take a BlazeMeter University course. Some of the most popular reasons include:

What’s New with BlazeMeter University?

For new and returning students we have made critical improvements to your BlazeMeter learning experience. Enjoy a better user experience with easier web navigation, clearer course descriptions, and new content. Some of the latest BlazeMeter University courses we have to offer include Building Test Data for Mobile, Test Data Fundamentals, and Introduction to Mock Services.

We have also added courses for those of you that are interested in our Perfecto product, covering mobile test data and Cypress 10 fundamentals. We will continue to add courses to BlazeMeter University for those interested in mobile testing with Perfecto going forward. The goal of these Perfecto-related courses at BlazeMeter University is the same as our BlazeMeter training, which is to help our Perfecto customers become proficient in using the product.

With Perfecto and BlazeMeter, testing teams can benefit from comprehensive application quality that reaches from mobile to mainframe. From building synthetic test data for mobile testing to mobile UX testing, Perfecto and BlazeMeter uniquely come together to create a complete continuous testing platform. Taking advantage of courses that focus on both Perfecto and BlazeMeter will help grow your overall testing skills.

Take BlazeMeter University Courses, and Enter to Win!

You know the common saying, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” Well, at BlazeMeter, we decided to take that statement quite literally.

Sometimes we all need a little incentive to go back to school. Starting today through November 1, 2022 we are offering our BlazeMeter University students the chance to win one of three Apple Watches as part of our Back to School Contest!

Entering the Back to School Contest is easy. Here is all you need to do:

• Take any two BlazeMeter University courses during September 19 – November 1, 2022.
• Following the completion of any two courses, you will automatically be entered in a drawing to win one of three Apple Watches. The drawing to see who wins each watch will be held on November 10, 2022.
• Post about your latest course certificates on LinkedIn and tag the BlazeMeter University LinkedIn page (@BlazeMeter University)! You will receive an additional entry for each course certification that you post about on LinkedIn (this is limited to two additional entries).

Bottom Line

So, if I can amend the common phrase slightly, “An apple a day keeps the bugs at bay.”

What are you waiting for? Swing by BlazeMeter University and start this school year off right. Get educated and enter to win an Apple Watch at the same time. Learning has never been so good.
