Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) Developer Corporate Training
Build AEM components with HTL, configure workflows and dispatcher caching, and ship a complete site in guided labs.
This instructor-led program takes your development and digital experience teams from AEM concepts to developer confidence. Across 28 hours and seven modules, your team explores AEM architecture and the JCR repository, builds components with HTL, creates editable templates and content fragments, configures workflows and launchers, sets up dispatcher caching, and finishes with a capstone site build reviewed by the instructor. Every session is hands-on, every technique is practiced, and the capstone delivers a working AEM site your team can use as a reference immediately.

Program Overview: What is Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) Developer?
Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) Developer is Edstellar's instructor-led technical program for development teams building and maintaining AEM sites. Participants learn AEM architecture and instance roles, Sling and OSGi fundamentals, the JCR repository, HTL component development, editable templates and content fragments, and dispatcher configuration. The focus stays on real development work: building components, modeling content, and tuning delivery.
Training is hands-on from the first module. Participants work through AEM foundations and content architecture, then develop HTL components and editable templates in guided labs paired with live instruction. Instructors coach your team through workflows, launchers, and dispatcher caching against your AEM version and content model, reviewing every exercise with direct feedback. The program closes with a capstone where the team plans, builds, and deploys a working AEM site.
AEM teams often struggle with fragile implementations: components that break on upgrade, content models that don't scale, and dispatcher misconfigurations that hurt performance. This program teaches your developers the discipline behind dependable AEM sites, from repository design to delivery tuning. Every technique is practiced in labs, so the skills transfer directly to your sites.
Developers build and deploy a complete AEM site in the capstone. Component changes get shipped by your own team instead of filed as tickets.
The capstone brings it home: your team plans a site build, develops components and templates in a guided lab, configures workflows and dispatcher caching, and presents the working site for structured instructor feedback. You leave with reusable artifacts: component patterns, template structures, and workflow models your AEM team can use from day one.
