EQuIS 5 Advanced User Workshop in New York August 17 – 19, 2010

Class Description:

8:30 AM – 4:30 PM Daily

The EQuIS 5 Advanced User Workshop will be an in-depth, interactive workshop lead by EarthSoft’s Development team. The content of this workshop will be determined primarily by topics of interest expressed by participants. Rather than following a typical training agenda, attendees will be expected to submit specific questions or issues pertaining to the advanced use and/or customization of EQuIS.

Following successful completion of this three-day workshop, attendees will be prepared to better address the specific needs of their users. Hands-on activities targeted toward each person’s questions and interests will result in a better knowledge and understand of EQuIS and how the system can more fully serve its intended purpose. The Advanced User Workshop is a great opportunity for administrators, developers, and power users to gain the expertise necessary to turn the EQuIS system into a customized solution to satisfy the needs of end users. There are only 12 seats available for this exciting and insightful workshop, so register now!
