There are several types of Sage training products which seem to offer similar benefits and you may find yourself thinking which one is best suited for me? This guide is designed to give you an overview of the differences between Sage E-Learning, Sage Training Workbooks, Sage Training CD-ROMS and Sage Training Passports.
Sage E-Learning
It's always easier to learn by doing and e-Learning gives you the chance to practice what you have learned using on-screen simulations of Sage software. Being online, this simulation is not quite as good as the full versions you get with the Training Workbooks and CD-ROMS but it still makes learning easier.
You are paying for access to the course for 12 weeks so you can revisit any of the topics as many times as you need to within that time period. This is very useful to have as inevitably situations will arise where you can't quite remember what you need to do.
Sage Training Workbooks
Sage Training CD-ROMs
Sage Training passport
Sage training passports are quite a different product to the individual training products covered above. Although you can use Sage training passports to buy all the self-study training courses (self-study workbooks, e-learning, training and CD-ROMs) the feature the really sets the training passports apart is the access they give your company to classroom training centres. These are Sage training courses created and delivered by experts, giving your staff the best possible training. There are currently 9 training centres situated all around the UK.
Deciding between taking employees out of the office to attend a training centre or using self-study methods can be tricky. On the one hand having a real person to talk to face to face can really benefit some people and make the learning process more enjoyable, on the other it is a more restrictive, formalised method. You also need to consider the extra time and travel costs if using the training centres. There's no best solution so consider what will work best for your business and your employees.
As with several of the other Sage training methods you can share the passports amongst more than one person. This makes the training passports a cost effective method to go for if you are aiming to train multiple employees.
The passports are also very flexible, allowing you to mix and match courses to create a training solution tailored to your company's unique needs.
They are currently available in 3, 5 and 10 days. The prices are structured to give you a discount for the more you buy, for instance 5 days RRP is £990 but 10 day RRP is £1344. However do not feel tempted to pay for more than you need. You only save by buying 10 days if you need 10 days.
