"I'm evaluating Compiere. Should I attend training?"
This is one of the most frequent questions we get from potential Compiere customers. The answer is: yes! Compiere training classes are a fast and efficient way to grasp the the capabilities of the system, and to learn how to effectively deploy the software to meet your business needs.
Compiere founders Jorg Janke and Kathy Pink lead the professionally designed training classes. Their product knowledge, business perspective and passion are refreshing advantages that you can put to immediate use in your evaluation and deployment of Compiere. First, you know that your questions can be answered immediately and accurately by individuals who are intimately familiar with the software. Second, because of Jorg and Kathy's intimate product knowledge, they have a unique ability to convey the richness of Compiere's model-driven architecture. Third, the dynamic of hands-on use of the software while interacting with other classmates and the founder/instructors spurs a faster and deeper learning than you can achieve on your own.
The Compiere Intensive Training class has no formal prerequisites and covers the functional elements of Compiere. The Compiere Technical Training class picks up where Intensive Training leaves off, providing a deeper exploration of Compiere customization techniques. To learn more about the classes and to register for the upcoming April/May training classes in the San Francisco Bay Area, click here.
For those of you who can't wait until the next training class to begin your evaluation, I want to let you know about a few of the useful resources at www.compiere.com. Introductory feature tours provide a view into using Compiere for some very common business activities such as receiving materials and matching receipts to purchase orders. The functionality section of the web site provides an overview of Compiere business processes orientation that enables organizations to define and automate processes across people, departments and divisions within a business. And the Installation section provides step-by-step instructions for installing Compiere.
