PowerBudget Training and Workshops

Since 1983, PowerBudget has provided sites/departments with a management tool that is extremely powerful, and flexible, and designed so that even a novice can be immediately productive after receiving training.

As new software is adopted, we often rely on training to overcome the learning curve.

The familiarity of the end-user with the "work task", (ie: school budget management) and the means (computers) plays an important role. Recognizing this diversity of background, we have developed the following options to address the training needs of our end-users:

Individual Training: One-on-one training (2 options)

1) On-site where available (Southern California), 3 hour minimum
2) By telephone, available 6AM-6PM M-F PST, no minimum

To train multiple users, Districts have the following 2 options:

1) PowerBudget WorkShop : A 3 1/2 hour workshop geared for the accelerated user.
2) PowerBudget WorkShop+: A 6 hour workshop geared towards the novice-average user.
