  • On going EDI training is a crucial component to maintaining a successful EDI program. Whether the key players are novices or experienced users, a customized, tailored training session from DCS can help keep the organization functioning at peak efficiency. Training sessions can be for one hour, one day, or one week depending on the need. The sessions can be conducted on-site at either a workstation for a single individual or in a classroom environment for a group.

    Training can be provided for something as basic as "What is EDI" to something as involved as "Integrated Mapping." Since each person in a group has differing goals and skill levels, time is spent with each while others work on exercises.

    The Training Process

    DCS Elite™ organized EDI curriculum is based upon years of training expertise. The first step that DCS takes prior to formulating a training plan is to determine the audience, the level of the audience's background, the intended subject matter, and the depth of knowledge required upon completion of the EDI training. A short assessment of your system helps us to learn the specific challenges and design a training plan that covers the topics you need and not the ones you don't.

    DCS customizes a training plan to meet your needs, spanning the entire spectrum of EDI topics. Custom tailored training to your unique requirements is more efficient and cost effective than classroom training, which lacks the "hands on" assistance we can provide. As a plus, some troubleshooting occurs simultaneously. After the training, you can call on DCS with follow up questions on an as needed basis.

    A typical EDI course syllabus entails:

    • Introductions and general concepts (data format and transmission method)
    • Listing of needs
    • Daily operations and EDI requirements for your company
    • Common problems and solutions
    • Map modifications and customizations
    • Secure Internet data transmission following the EDI INT AS2 specification or FTP over your VPN.

    Conclusion

    Whether one or several individuals need to be trained, it is cost efficient to have DCS provide the training. Unlike generic training sessions, the EDI training provided is customized to meet the exact needs of the recipient. Effective training also minimizes the risks of disruption due to inexperience.

    The unnecessary costs of travel and time away from work can be eliminated with remote training options. Plus, recipients avail themselves to on-going support with the specialist who provided the EDI training to them. The benefit is no more highly visible EDI challenges. The next step is to email DCS for your free assessment.
