I am looking for an experienced FileMaker professional—ideally someone based in Tamil Nadu with roughly 3 to 10 years in the field—to guide me through an intermediate-level program conducted entirely online. The sessions should deepen my understanding of three core areas: • robust database management practices, • scripting and calculations that go beyond basic automation, and • layout design techniques that blend usability with aesthetics. Please outline how many live sessions you recommend, the tools or sample files you will supply, and how you will measure my progress. Share a brief overview of similar training you have delivered, along with references or demos if available. By the end of the engagement I expect to feel confident building, refining, and troubleshooting FileMaker solutions on my own, so an interactive, hands-on approach is essential.
