Case Study: Landsbond der Christelijke Mutualiteiten (LCM) achieves enhanced business agility and faster application delivery with Oracle University Java training

Landsbond der Christelijke Mutualiteiten Enhances Business Agility by Training Cross-Functional Development Teams in the Latest Java Technologies

Landsbond der Christelijke Mutualiteiten (CM) is Belgium’s largest health insurance fund, serving 4.5 million members across 19 regional funds. CM’s IT department faced a growing need to maintain and develop Java-based, web-enabled applications, but many experienced in‑house programmers came from functional backgrounds (COBOL, Visual Basic, 4GL, C++) and lacked object‑oriented and web development skills. CM needed a consistent, phased training plan to boost developer productivity, collaboration, and retention while rapidly meeting business demands.

Oracle University delivered a tailored, multi‑phased three‑year Java training program—10 courses delivered as private on‑site events with two‑month application intervals and a consistent trainer—covering practical, real‑world scenarios in CM’s environment. The program increased business agility and competitiveness, improved internal Java expertise and team collaboration, accelerated service delivery by enabling juniors to handle basic coding while seniors focused on complex work, and strengthened retention and career paths for IT staff.
