Due to Covid-19 all on-site training courses are temporarily suspended. Please contact us for on-line training options.
Personalized training as a supplement to the comprehensive help system that is embedded in BG-BASE allows us to fully understand the collection management needs of your institution and the resources that are available to you; such training also allows trainees and trainers to focus on both the conceptual and procedural aspects of managing biological collections. We recognize that each institution is different, and as such we develop a customized training regime instead of taking a 'one size fits all' approach. Our training staff have all worked in botanical gardens and arboreta and have years of teaching experience.
Retraining
Given the high turnover of staff at many institutions, the need frequently arises for new staff to be trained in how to use BG-BASE effectively.
This can be arranged through the BG-BASE offices in the US or UK and can take place at one of the international
development and support centers or at the user's site. Individual training may also be arranged in some circumstances on-line.
Training Seminars
Additionally, there are regular group Training Seminars offered, which can be offered at Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced levels.
These 1 to 2 day sessions are
designed for people just starting out as well as for people already familiar with the system who wish to extend their skills, understanding,
and confidence. A significant amount of time is spent on intermediate and advanced query and reporting techniques, thereby helping participants
become "super" users. Training Seminars also offer attendees the opportunity to meet colleagues from other institutions who share the same job
responsibilities.
Email us for pricing and to reserve
a place at one of these seminars. |
BG-BASE Users Group
BG-BASE Users Group meetings are also periodically scheduled. These meetings provide ideal opportunities
for keeping up to date on BG-BASE developments as well as for meeting colleagues using the system.
