Training By Appointment (TBA)

These highly successful one-on-one, customized training sessions can be the answer to your training needs in your office or in the One-On-One Training Room, Room 165 of Polya Hall located at 255 Panama Street (in the Jordan Quad area of campus).

Pick your own learning objectives, then register for a 1 1/2 hour or 3 hour training appointment. An expert in the areas described below will work with you on YOUR learning objectives.

Bring your own documents, spreadsheets, presentations, databases, or web pages to get the most from your session. You will set up to five learning objectives before meeting.

The better prepared you and your instructor are for your training session, the more profitable your training time will be.
