Personalize Your Learning

Structured MentoringWe can provide on-site mentoring services to assist students, reinforce concepts, and provide focused guidance as they begin to use WebFOCUS in their own environment. These services are not intended to be in lieu of training classes and are specifically designed to follow instructor-led training offerings. Scheduled in full-day increments for up to four participants, a structured mentoring day can be arranged in one of the following ways:

■■ Applying classroom topics and techniques in your WebFOCUS environment – Intended to extend the classroom topics to workable solutions within the customer’s environment. The instructor of a class will remain on-site as the mentor and subject knowledge expert for the topics taught in class while the students apply the techniques to their environment

■■ Agreed upon outline of topics – An instructor is made available on-site to mentor students in their environment on specific, agreed upon topics, from material taught in previously attended courses. A subject matter expert for the data is required to be provided by the customer

Training Customization Information Builders’ training customization offers a cost-effective solution that facilitates the transition from the classroom to the workplace. Our training experts adapt Information Builders’ course material to your unique goals, data, and work environment. Customized hands-on exercises teach participants how to access and work with their own data, resulting in empowered and productive users and a greater return on your training dollar.

Our training customization delivers a valuable alternative to your own in-house training development at a fraction of the time and cost. Our course developers have the expertise and experience to meet your tight training deadlines and budgets, relieve your overburdened staff, and satisfy your employees’ needs for customized training.

The course tuition fee does not include hotel accommodations, meals, travel, or any other expenses that may be incurred by our customer.

Transfers/Cancellations/No ShowsOur flexible transfer/cancellation policy lets our customers enroll early with confidence. We do not impose any penalty for cancellations of enrollments or transfers to another course. Failure to notify Information Builders of an enrollment cancellation or transfer in writing or by phone within five business days before the start of the course will result in forfeiture of the full course fee.

Substitutions PermittedWe welcome the enrollment of a qualified substitute in an enrollee’s place, provided the customer notifies us in writing before the first day of the course. One hundred percent of any prepaid course tuition fees will be credited against the course tuition fee of the substitute. However, the substitute may not take advantage of any discount program for which he or she is not otherwise qualified.

Course PostponementsAt times we must change a course location, course date, or postpone a course. We will try to give the customer as much advance notice as possible of any such change. If the customer is unable to attend a course at the revised location or date, we will credit 100 percent of any prepaid course tuition fees paid against a future course or, if requested, refund those fees. However, we will not be liable for any other costs incurred including (for example) travel charges or any consequential damages even if we were advised of them. Changes in course locations, course dates, or postponement of courses will not extend an EDPACK or Training Bundle expiration date.
