Duration
The training session usually starts at 9:00 AM and ends at
4:00 PM. The training is usually offered over a single-day period. However, this
is your training session and you are free to set up a different training
schedule. If you prefer to have the training over more than one day, an
additional fee applies.
Fees
The fee for on-site training is $2,500. We will make and pay
for all travel arrangements, so you do not have to worry about making travel
reservations, paying travel expenses, or dealing with receipts and expense
reports.
The above fee covers one day of training. If you need extra days, an additional
fee of $1,500 per extra day is required.
Note that the fee above assumes that the trainer is able to travel back to
Connecticut after the training session. For remote sites, this might not be
possible, and the trainer will need to spend the next day traveling instead. In
this case, an additional fee of $700 is required to cover the extra travel time
and expenses. Contact us to find out if your site is considered remote.
Also note that we need a minimum of 30 days notice to arrange your on-site
training. Shorter notices will require an additional fee to cover the higher
travel expenses associated with short notice travel reservations. Note that our
company's policy requires that we receive pre-payment before we can schedule
your on-line training session.
How to Order
First contact us to arrange for a mutually convenient
training date. You will then need to prepay the training session directly with a
check or a major credit card.
Training Agenda
1) Needs Assessment
The trainer will start by asking you about your needs (types of services you
offer, who will use the software, and what you would like to get out of
AlarmTraq). The trainer will then determine how AlarmTraq can be used to fulfill
your needs and will focus the training session on what you need most.
2) Software Usage Tour
With your needs in mind, the trainer will go through the different software
modules to give you an over-view of how it works.
3) Software Setup
The trainer will then show you how to set up the software for use at your
center. This includes setting up the system-wide options, site profiles, etc.
The trainer will also show you how to use the more advanced capabilities of
AlarmTraq like SQL integration and web applications.
4) Software Maintenance
Like any other database application AlarmTraq requires some maintenance.
This includes backing up the tables, selective deletion of records. The trainer
will show you how to do each one of these tasks.
5) Reports and Data
Getting data into the computer is half the job. You still need to get useful
information out of it. The trainer will show you the different types of reports
available. You will learn how to use AlarmTraq's Reports Generator including
filtering data, setting the report's options, and printing reports.
6) Support Resources
The trainer will show the available support resources and options for the
software users. This includes a tour of the AlarmTraq support site, message
board, and available on-line resources.
7) Q & A
You and your staff are free to ask questions during the presentation. You
will also get an opportunity to ask questions in the Q&A session following the
presentation. Topics for discussion may include software functionality, setup,
customization, and network installation. If more hands-on work is required, the
trainer can meet with your staff members on individual bases to address their
questions.
