Welcome to the first edition of Datasky’s quarterly news letter Learning to Succeed targeted for new and existing users of the Oracle Applications e-business suite.
As an experienced Oracle partner and Training Services provider we are only too aware that the success of an Implementation is largely measured by how quickly new applications are adopted throughout the organization by confident well educated users.
To this end Learning to Succeed is Datasky’s way of sharing with you some of our Business Readiness and Training experiences, insights and knowledge gained over the last 15 years. Each newsletter will provide a full range of hints and tips, white papers and real life customer experiences all available for you to download directly free of charge.
This edition includes our "Lost in Translation" white paper which looks at the ways to avoid the pitfalls that will knock your implementation off course and provides some simple steps for putting it right - including
- Properly mobilizing the Project Team
- Really engaging stakeholders
- Putting effort into documenting new processes and keeping them updated
- Effective education and training that sticks
Our objective is that having made you more aware of the different Education and Training services available in the marketplace today these options can be successfully deployed (with or without our assistance), to enhance your Learning experiences and enable you to make the most out of your Oracle Applications systems.
We hope you will find the enclosed information useful and will take time to download some of the content in particular the keyboard shortcuts as they have proved extremely useful for systems users. Please feel free to circulate this information to your colleagues and have them contact us if they wish to be added to the mailing list.
At Datasky we welcome any training enquiries that you may have and If you are looking for a training partner or would like to discuss any training requirements please give us a call on 0208 614 7500 or email us directly at: info@datasky.com.
This Dairy Crest case study highlights the importance of identifying a training partner early in the implementation process so that training materials can be developed that reflect the business and then deployed in good time using a mix of traditional classroom and online training delivery.
