Get the Most out of MWUG With QAD Training

Posted on: October 9, 2015 | By: Craig Thompson | QAD Business Process

If you are a QAD user looking to get more out of your Midwest User Group conference investment, look no further. Logan Consulting will be hosting two QAD training events immediately following MWUG this spring, in Lincolnshire, Illinois. This event, held on March 20-22nd will be broken up into two training classes, one addressed towards helping functional QAD users while the other will cater towards QAD technical users. These classes offer users valuable insight and impeccable training. In past sessions, classes have been known to fill up fast!

If you are considering attending MWUG this Spring, but have not decided whether QAD training is for you, here are what some of our participants had to say:

Jennifer Louria (Champion Foods)– “Excellent Training!  Learned a lot and refreshed or reinforced prior knowledge”

Marian Cruttenden (Pridgeon & Clay) – “Andrew does and excellent job!  Very beneficial!”

Our training goals,  agenda and approach are as follows:

Training Goal: This workshop will focus on helping you develop a deeper understanding of production, execution, setups, and processing.
