Implementing or upgrading an ERP system such as Infor CloudSuite will have a big impact on your organisation. Unless you make sure that your users know how to use the application in the most effective way, you won’t achieve full return on your investment.
Optimum is an expert in end-user training for the implementation and upgrades of Infor CloudSuite, as well as business-as-usual (BAU) refresher training solutions.
We not only understand the way the system works but also how to best train your staff. By using a mixture of tools and methods, Optimum’s training consultants have the relevant expertise to help ensure your workforce adopt the new software and any changing business processes.
Our training consultants are experienced in developing customised, client-branded, collaborative learning solutions for organisations with workstreams such as Financial, CRM, Sales and Order Management, Supply Chain, Planning and Service.
We develop training programmes for users of Infor CloudSuite that reflect their way of working, incorporating the individual business processes and workflows for each role group.
Taking advantage of Optimum’s specialist skills and experience in delivering user-focused training will ensure that your organisation achieves full value across the lifetime of the system, as users engage with the system and adopt the new processes.
We offer a range of training services to support the whole lifecycle of the end-user training phase, ensuring your project team can focus on the core project at a crucial stage. Every project is different and so our approach is unique to you. We can either provide a fully-managed training solution or fill the skills gap in your internal team.
Training solutions include:
Many organisations plan to manage the end-user training programme using internal resources, as this is often seen as the most cost-effective way to train staff. However, this can be a high-risk and costly option if it is not planned correctly.
Using a combination of internal super users and a specialist training consultancy such as Optimum, provides a very successful outcome.
Optimum helps organisations to build internal capabilities for training by equipping identified internal super users with the right delivery skills, tools and role-based process knowledge to ensure effective training delivery.
Super users or subject matter experts (SMEs) usually have the technical knowledge, but often lack the training expertise to teach other users how to learn new processes. They may also have little time outside of their day job to develop the tailored training materials for each role-based course.
This is where our training consultants can draw upon their specialist skills to equip your super users for current and future system implementations and upgrades.
As part of our comprehensive range of business as usual solutions, Optimum also offers a number of tailored reporting courses to enable you to consolidate your skills in Unit4 Business World (Agresso) ERP systems.
Our training consultants can develop training sessions utilising your system build and therefore your data.
Reach out to Optimum for full course outlines of the following available courses:
Excelerator Basics – 2 day

Excelerator Advanced – 1 day
This course is designed for advanced Agresso users who want to create server-based Excelerator reports. Starting with an introduction to the mechanics of server-based reporting, participants will learn how to convert Excelerator reports into server-based reports, including report-splitting and emailing.
