| The purpose of the Ultimus Enterprise Integration Kit (EIK) is to provide the means for customizing and extending the functionality of the Ultimus BPM Suite. The Ultimus BPM Server provides an open, extensible environment for business process automation. It can be used as a fully functional and complete out-of-the-box solution for business process automation, or it can be embedded in third-party software packages and provide BPM functionality behind the scenes. Between these two extremes, it allows different levels of integration with third-party applications.
The Ultimus EIK Training course is a facilitated, hands-on learning opportunity to learn the skills, described by the Performance Outcomes below, required for successfully applying the tools of the Ultimus EIK.
