MicroStrategy Training Anywhere, Anytime. MicroStrategy is pleased to introduce a new delivery method for public and private courses — Distance Learning! We realize the challenges you face in sending your staff to classes, as well as the costs involved in travelling to public training centers. You can now have your project team members trained without leaving the office, saving you money in travel expenses. In addition, we can conduct private Distance Learning sessions instead of bringing a MicroStrategy trainer onsite eliminating travel costs for our instructor. With private Distance Learning, MicroStrategy can also offer a flexible delivery schedule, providing remote teaching hours that are most convenient to your staff.
Distance learning is an ideal solution for customers:
- with a limited travel budget who cannot send individuals to public training centers;
- who do not have training dollars to bring a MicroStrategy trainer in-house;
- with off-shore teams who want to avoid the travel and expenses associated with training;
- who have distributed user communities that they want to train simultaneously.
How the program works
MicroStrategy uses Microsoft® Live Meeting technology to deliver standard instructor-led courses remotely over the Web. With just a browser and an internet connection, participants will be able to log in to an independent training environment, pre-configured with MicroStrategy software, and participate in remote hands-on learning. In addition, each student will be able to order a hard copy course manual to be delivered directly to them. Live Meeting interactive forum coupled with ReadyTech Hosted Labs training environment enables you to experience live instruction in the comfort of your office, as well as collaborate with other students and the instructor on an as-needed basis.
How much does it cost?
For public Distance Learning courses:
A public Distance Learning course can be paid via check, credit card or using existing learning units (LUs). A public course is $650/person/day or 1 LU/person/day. For PEP members, public Distance Learning course tuition is covered under existing PEP membership. MicroStrategy will provide a link for Distance Learning participants to download a free, electronic version of the course manual. If you want an additional printed copy, you can purchase one through our global printing vendor. The purchase details will be included in your confirmation email.
For private Distance Learning courses:
The private Distance Learning course fee is 6 learning units (LUs) per day for up to 24 concurrent students.
