The optimum approach
There are several ways for trainees to obtain help and support during their technical certification programs (details of these programs can be found in our Introduction to the Quantexa Academy article).
However, we recommend a specific approach to seeking support.
We found this to be the most effective way, and one that best supports your self-efficacy as a learner (and future engineer).
Please follow the steps below:
- Start with the Quantexa Community Platform.
- Then visit the Product Documentation site.
- As a final resort, ask for help during a Quantexa Academy Support Session.

We also provide subject-specific sessions for BAs, which occur once a week for both UK and Australia time zones.
They provide an opportunity to get live support for troubleshooting bugs or answering queries.
