an integral part of system implementation. Training from our professional

team at BlueVenn will enable you get the most from the system as quickly as

Course Delivery Options

Introductory classroom training is a minimum requirement for all users of BlueVenn software. We have several delivery options available to allow you to blend training together to learn as you prefer.

Scheduled Courses

Scheduled classroom training courses are held at our training suite in Bristol, centrally located easy to access from Temple Meads train station. Accommodation is also nearby. Scheduled courses are suitable for new users or to form part of continued learning in advanced areas of the software solutions for more experienced users. Scheduled training is often the more cost effective option when there are under four people requiring training.

We also schedule training courses to be delivered as web based sessions. These courses are held using Cisco Webex Training Centre. Although these sessions do not give as much interaction between trainer and delegate, they form an integral part of our blended learning solution for international customers and our trainers work hard to ensure the sessions are as interactive as possible.

On-Site Courses

To take a group of staff out of the workplace for a day’s training is both costly and disruptive. Instead, our trainer’s will travel to client site and deliver classroom courses within the office. In the event that there is no access to a suitable training room we can hold these sessions at a local independent meeting venue. For blueANALYZER courses, one day for training room preparation is also applicable for on-site delivery. Private courses are priced to allow up to eight delegates per course.

Bespoke Training

If your organisation has a training requirement which is not detailed in this brochure please feel free to contact us to discuss. All our courses are modular in format so please feel free to enquire about courses tailored to your organisation’s requirements.

Delivery styles

Whether training is requested for delivery on site or at one of our training suite venues, rest assured the training will be practical and applicable to all users. All courses have a very hand’s on approach with practical exercises forming the basis of the learning. “The Learning is in the Doing” is our trainer’s motto. Where possible we will endeavour to use client data references and materials within the session to make the exercises as close to reality as possible.

BlueVenn Education Programmes

The BlueVenn Education Programme is the complete compliment of standard training courses designed to achieve maximum usage and productivity during implementation of a BlueVenn Solution, when on-boarding a new employee to work with the Solution or simply maximising use of your annual training budget..

The key benefit of our Education Programmes is that they allow new users to request further training

following experience of analysing, selecting, reporting and understanding their own data, giving a productivity benefit. The advanced training aspects make much more sense once the basics are practiced to a confident standard.

These combined packages give great value for money and a discount over buying each training course individually, plus the flexibility to blend our standard training delivery options.
