Basic TMS Millennium Training
Important Information
Course Description:
The Basic TMS Millennium course is designed for those who are new to TMS
Millennium, are returning to TMS after an extended period, or who need a
refresher course in TMS data entry techniques, especially those who have not
received TMS training in several years.
Since the TMS software is constantly evolving, new enhancements are added
with each release. This course is also revised along with TMS to include new
features and "best practices" techniques in each class.
The student will be taken through a simulated "Day in the Life of a
Training Manager." Using laptop computers they bring with them to class,
students will perform data entry in every segment of TMS, adding a new
employee, scheduling training activities, modifying the Training Plan,
issuing equipment, and creating common memos, forms, and reports.
We keep the student-to-instructor ratio low to provide individual help
where needed and keep the class progressing at an acceptable pace. For this
reason, class size is limited to 35 students. |
