Offsite Training

If only 1 or 2 users need to be trained, offsite training is the best option because it is less expensive than onsite training. With offsite training, interruptions are kept to a minimum because attendees are away from the plant. Additional knowledge is gained from working with classmates from other plants by sharing best practices and learning how they use their software.

The training topics covered are based on a set agenda.

Onsite Training

If 3 or more users need training, based on travel costs, it’s more economical to schedule a CMMS Data Group consultant to train you and your team at your plant.

The training topics covered are set by each plant.

Online Training

2-hour online training sessions, guided by a live instructor, can be scheduled anytime at your convenience with an unlimited number of users. If users would like to show the instructor something on their computer for review or critique, the instructor can connect to their computer, too. After each training session, users practice and use what they learned. Future training sessions can be scheduled, if needed.

The training topics covered are set by each plant.
