Education

Camstar Education Services offer quality coursework to support customer needs on all Camstar Products.

A wide range of courses are available for Camstar Manufacturing (formerly known as InSite).  New curriculums are in progress and will be released in 2009 for Camstar Quality and Camstar Intelligence.

Customers who participate in Camstar Education are consistently better prepared for system implementation and typically have better long-term project success rates than their peers. Camstar offers quality coursework to support all levels of Camstar Product training. Courses are taught at Camstar's headquarters in Charlotte, NC, or they can be scheduled at customer site locations if needed.

Training and Certification Tracks

Camstar courses are taught by Certified Instructors. Courses are built around a generic storyline to form a context by which students can learn system functionality. Directed training for your specific project is available on request. Camstar Education Services will also customize classes to fit specific customer needs. Contact the Education Department for pricing related to custom classes.

Instructor led training and interactive course labs provide the knowledge and skills needed by customers to implement solutions to business needs using Camstar Products. Camstar education is developed for core members of the implementation team, including: modelers, designers, developers, and managers.

Courses provide focused, hands on training and are presented as:
