A new approach to Sage 200 training

A

Award winning Sage 200 Partner itas has developed a new approach to report designer and general 200 training. The advent of cloud accounting software and the need for more flexible and affordable training options for Sage 200 users has generated a shift from the traditional workplace training model that is the standard in the industry. itas have built an online training model that has all the benefits of the tutor led model but that also offers attendees flexibility at a reduced cost.

According to research, corporations now report that e-Learning is the second most valuable training method that they use. This is no surprise, given that e-Learning saves businesses at least 50% when they replace traditional instructor-based training with e-Learning as stated by e-learning expert Christopher Pappas.

“Having people sat in front of a computer all day just isn’t realistic” states Lead Solution Consultant Hannah Lincoln, “The reality is that the best training offers small snippets of information that can be absorbed and then built on. That is why we have structured our courses to maximise their impact and to give trainees the opportunity to ask questions between sessions”

The new style online sage 200 training course is held over two mornings. For each session, attendees log in to the online training portal and the tutor uses a combination of presentations, virtual labs and written training guides to help step each user through the syllabus. In addition, prior to the course, each pupil is sent an anytime learning short course to help familiarise them with the topic prior to the course. Topics covered include Sage 200 report designer, Sage 200 BI and Sage 200 Administration.

For those that are new to Sage 200, itas offer free sage 200 user guides as well as a monthly hints and tips ezine, to help you get the most of your system. They also offer hourly based online training using the platform to help keep costs low for new implementations of the sage 200 accounting software. This reduces the upfront cost of purchasing the software for those who prefer to do most of the setup themselves.

“Our priority is our customers and what they need from us. This new approach gives us the ability to offer training that works for them, at a price that is realistic for individual users. We will be releasing further courses as the syllabuses are confirmed.
