Notes 

Language 

This course is currently planned to take place in German.

In order to assess the possibility of changing the course's language to English in case of potential requests from "English only speaking" persons, we request alternative language options as part of the registration process.

Therefore please be sure to choose the suitable language option during registration - but please note that this option should not be used to request the course in a different language!

Note on the date specification 

The exact distribution of the training times within the week might still be agreed upon differently between trainer and participants to respond to special situations of the participants if necessary. In total, the time required for the training is 3 "full" days. However, we spread the course over 4 slightly "shorter" days. Please let us know about already known time restrictions as a comment.

Technical requirements / preparation    

• During the course, the conference solution MS Teams is used. According to our experience, these solutions offer the best compatibility for the most diverse environments. Nevertheless, we recommend that you clarify whether technical measures such as proxy or firewall activations are necessary.
• A few days before the training, there will be a short appointment with the participants for a technical check to ensure that the training can be carried out smoothly. This check should of course take place on your site in the same environment in which you will be attending the training.
• Each participant should have two displays so that he/she can use his/her own workspace parallel to the trainer's presentation without having to switch between applications.
• We advise against using the integrated microphone of laptops, as experience shows that the audio quality is rather poor. Better is a headset or a separate audio device like "Jabra Speak".
• Some days before the course all participants will receive information about the course and necessary preparations via e-mail - e.g. a link to download the training material and, if necessary, software installation. Therefore, please make sure that you have entered the e-mail addresses of the individual participants correctly. 

Special notes on DTA

• During the course, the participants work with a local FirstSpirit server on their own computer. The necessary files and a brief instruction manual will be provided in advance.
• The installation process is not part of the training; the participants have to perform the installation themselves before the training begins. To be on the safe side, please plan a time buffer - if, contrary to expectations, problems arise during installation, we can provide support. 

For partner companies, the agreed discounts are taken into account in the invoice.
