Course Description
This course is primarily designed to educate those that will be using Iguana to monitor, manage and build interfaces in their day to day activities. You will finish confident in your ability to monitor existing interfaces, trouble shoot any issues that may arise, and build the basic channel structure connecting any source to any destination. We will cover how to build and monitor your interfaces with the use of the Dashboard, research and troubleshoot through the logs, administer a server through the settings, and customize interfaces with the translator. All these functions are necessary to successfully connecting two or more systems together and there is no better tool to do it with.
The course teaches by doing, so I took situations from real life requests and turned them into education opportunities. You will be building at least three HL7 interfaces! Now Iguana can handle a lot more than HL7 but HL7 is the most common and easily understood specification which makes it a perfect candidate to focus on the Iguana application. We walk you through the HL7 specification basics and attempt to prepare you for real world situations that can arise when building interfaces. Students will also obtain the basics theories and syntax for Lua, the programming language utilized by Iguana.
Course attendees are expected to bring their own laptops, which are capable of running Iguana 5.5.
All attendees have the right to sit the Level 1 Certification exam at no additional cost.
