Custom Training

MediaBeacon offers a variety of training options that can be customized to match your instance of MediaBeacon and concentrate on functions specific to your organization.

MediaBeacon can create training materials and/or offer training services that focus on a specific user story. A user story is all of the steps a user takes in MediaBeacon to complete a specific task, or set of tasks, from start to finish. Training services and materials complement each other, so we recommend a combination of both to help train and sustain user adoption. Timing, pricing, and scope are custom to the situation.

Training Materials

Training materials are written documents that explain a user story. Training materials are helpful references to help train your users internally and drive user adoption. Examples of training materials include guides, playbooks, and videos.

Training Services

Training services are private onsite or online sessions conducted by a MediaBeacon trainer for your users. These sessions can focus on a specific user story so that your administrators and users can learn and ask a MediaBeacon trainer about how to use the system efficiently.

The standard Web UI and Server Side configuration classes are also available as private online or onsite sessions.

Additional training service topics include installation, UI branding training, non-current version training, and more as needed.
