Prepaid Training Days: The solution to save time and money!

Pick one package of training days, get one invoice and access multiple training courses for anyone on your team for a year! Read this blog post to find out why others like this offer and choose to use it repeatedly. 

Earlier this year, we launched our prepaid training packages to help Canadian customers save on training and ease the burden of administrative processes. In the previous blog post titled 5 advantages of prepaid training, I highlighted the main advantages of this program.  

Since then, many have taken advantage of this offer. So this time, I want to share with you, why Canadian customers are liking the packages and why they come back for more. 

Harold MacNeil, Manager Engineering Information, Halifax Water says “Esri Canada prepaid training is a great way for managers and supervisors to lock in and commit their GIS training budget securing these funds in a ready to use mode. Training registration and payment become streamlined with no delays being created due to late payments therefore better securing course placements for my staff. Furthermore, Esri Canada prepaid training comes at a discount which leads to more training dollars being available for staff. The ease which pre-paid training can be put in place along with the discount make it a favorable option for me and my organization.”

Here’s more reasons I heard from other customers: 

  • No more need to get multiple justifications and approvals push through and deal with small invoices that comes out of each person’s training courses. Just one request, one approval and one invoice.  

  • Ability to plan for individuals or for the whole team and execute the training plan throughout the year, as the schedule allows, is great. No more last-minute search for training options in limited calendar spaces when budget deadline looms. 

  • Flexibility to pick the best course for the needs, even if goals or priorities change along the way. No wasted funds in case of unexpected changes in priorities. 

Would like to get started? Pick one of the packages of training days that you think will be best for your team (see table below) and contact us for the next step.
