In this article, he shares his own experience and what helped him start applying his knowledge in a new field as an Associate Web Developer.
We started investigating the OutSystems platform on a recommendation from one of our customers in August 2017.

Besides, we have successfully finished 2 projects.

By default, OutSystems use RDBMS (Relational Database Management System) so it would be also useful to learn table relations, SQL queries, normalization rules, delete rules. You can find the learning materials in W3Schools.
OutSystems has toolbox and components that may be added to web screen. These are generated HTML pages, and if you know how it works behind the scene, it will help you a lot. DOM tree and HTML knowledge can help you visualize how components are built and related to each other clearer.
To make sure that we are ready for the real exam, our team decided to prepare an internal one. The scope of questions that could cover the topics of all studied material + real conditions imitation helped us to make a great rehearsal and become more confident while passing the real test. Book a room, don’t take a cell phone with you, record the desktop, put the clock in front of you and start. It modulates a real exam situation and puts you under pressure. An internal exam helps you sharpen up your coding skills, critical thinking and time management.
Ask your team member or tech lead to check the results. The feedback will help you review the topics you are not 100% sure about and devote more time to training and focusing on those specific details.
Hope this OutSystems training review was useful to you. Good luck on the exam!
