Additionally, we have partnered with 123OLAP, a respected EPM training specialists offering regularly scheduled courses open to the public.

Although TopDown is keenly focused on transferring knowledge throughout each phase of your EPM/BI System implementation, several principal members of your team will normally require formal training to fully realize your system’s potential.

TopDown will tailor the development and delivery of your training program—whether technical, administrative, or end-user focused—to accelerate productivity and maximize cost savings. We offer the following four primary training methods, which are frequently used in a variety of combinations to meet your specifications. The courses are specifically designed to accommodate the full scope of business audiences – from executive overviews to full technical certifications.

Onsite Private Training

Our most popular offering, onsite training has the potential to significantly reduce travel expenses, particularly in cases where attendees are located in one centralized area and your class size is large. For onsite training, Oracle University curriculum is taught by either an Oracle or TopDown instructor at your designated locale. This private class allows you to focus 100% on your own, specific business needs.

Oracle University

For our clients who prefer to send their team offsite for live, instructor-led training, we will coordinate schedules and make necessary arrangements at your selected Oracle University location. Instructor-led training is generally considered to be the most effective and comprehensive, offering attendees the opportunity to pose questions about their specific situations. Interaction with fellow classmates is repeatedly cited as an unexpected bonus.

Virtual Classroom Training

With virtual training, distance learning technologies such as Webex and videoconferencing are used to interactively connect your employees to a live instructor. Ideal for teams scattered across many locations, this virtual option offers convenient flexibility while maintaining the many benefits of live instruction. A full complement of course materials is shipped to participants prior to their virtual training sessions.

Computer Based Training

Oracle University offers extensive self-study content via both CD-ROM and online formats that can be used to deliver complete courses, when live training is impractical, or to supplement instructor-led sessions. This constantly updated knowledge center is a valuable repository of information with 24/7/365 accessibility.
