Basic TMS Millennium Training - Online

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 is guided through a simulated "Day in the Life of a Training Manager."  Skills developed include adding a new employee, scheduling training activities, modifying the Training Plan, issuing equipment, and creating common memos, forms, and reports.

This online format is designed to address the training needs of TMS users who are unable to attend the classroom format training classes due to scheduling or budgetary issues.

This course consists of four segments, presented over a four-day period. This breaks up the training and enables students to deal with other issues during the day.

Each day consists of a 2-hour live online presentation and self-paced hands-on exercises, performed offline by each student. (exercises typically take 1-2 hours) Students submit one homework assignment for each day's exercises.

Class size is limited to 25 students.
