Beginner training - any good articles out there?

Hi

 

I'm in the position of being asked to recommend training of my colleagues. Obviously start with Welcome to ServiceNow but they have different needs post this. Some are going to be just users, some citizen developers, some in the ITOM area and some full on devs. (It's like 2-3 per area).

 

The CSA is such a long dry course I've "lost" a few already who just get bogged down in it and frankly unless you are heading to dev/admin there's no need to do it immediately. Once they are invested the CSA will be palatable and they will see the need. Career paths are currently limited and a bit much for starters.

 

Without asking you to do my job (!) can anyone signpost me to good resources. I can't be the only one wading through the seemingly endless number of courses in NowLearning.

 

thanks

 

Debbie

Hi @Deborah Hill 

 

Greetings!!

 

I’m a ServiceNow trainer and happy to share my thoughts and input on this.

ServiceNow has become both broad and deep, and for beginners, every module can seem like a giant. For anyone looking to start their journey in ServiceNow, the CSA (Certified System Administrator) course is the first step.

Why? Because CSA is not just a course — it’s the foundation. It helps users understand the entire platform, its components, capabilities, and how everything fits together.

So, the starting point for your team should be CSA. It’s around 16 hours of training designed to give a strong kickstart.
You can also refer to Batch 17 on my YouTube channel, where users can get a practical, hands-on deep dive into CSA.
