Learning paths courses on the Developer website are connected in ascending order?

[Paul A Ciocan]

Greetings everyone,

I have started learning on the official Now Learning platform, but my current question is regarding the Developer Program and it's website's contents.

Basically, when I start the "New to ServiceNow" learning path, it contains 14 courses, are these individual courses in any relation or is there any relevance between how are they ordered as they are ordered inside the learning path?

Does it make sense to complete these first, before I dive into the NowLearning platform?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Paul A Ciocan,

please share a link or a screenshot to answer you with certainty..

But however I believe you can enrol and proceed with any class or training in random order as long as you complete it one by one rather than start five classes at once.
