As a certified training and consulting partner this is a very frustrating
part of working with Business Objects. We typically don’t see any new
release training materials for new releases until after the general
availability, just like the general customer base. I have asked Business
Objects several times during the 3 to 4 release and now again in
anticipation of the 5.0 release for a preview of the training materials or
a prerelease of the product so we can prepare, but alas nothing has come.
Stay tuned for more information as it becomes available.

They show classes for 4.1 through June on their web site. Some classes,
like ReportScript, are no longer offered since it’s revamped in 5.0.
It would be nice if they could start the classes before or soon after a
new version is released not months later.
As a person participating in the beta program, it would very hard to nail down training classes until the product is settled down for release.
Beta test results could effect the content of the product you are trying to train to and you would be complaining again if you started planning your training classes and that part of the product gets pulled prior to general release.
I am sure Business Objects will do their very best to communicate the product to everyone envolved once it is ready for “prime time”.
