The grandMA3 Beginner course is designed for the new programmer, or for the professional programmer with little to no experience with grandMA2. This 2-day course will cover the foundational concepts of lighting programming, using the grandMA3 software platform. Class topics include software navigation and hardware layout, attribute manipulation, group selection, presets, sequences and executors, phasers, and more.

If you are already well-versed in grandMA2 programming, you might consider taking a "grandMA3 for the grandMA2 User" course instead of this course, and then moving on to the grandMA3 Intermediate Course.

All registrants are strongly encouraged to complete the free grandMA3 Beginner Pretest first. If you do not score at least 85% on this test, we strongly recommend reviewing the free grandMA3 Prerequisite course before attending a grandMA3 Beginner class. The class will assume some underlying knowledge of the topics covered in the Prerequisite course, and may not have time to review all of these basics.

Note: Students will most likely be sharing a console with 1 other person.
