Intensive hands-on training teaches D-Tools users how to harness the power of SI 2015 system integrator software

D-Tools Inc., the worldwide leader in system integration software, will hold a multi-day System Integrator Training in Austin, TX September 16–18, 2015. During the three-day comprehensive, hands-on training event instructor and D-Tools training partner Ryan Brown of Media Environment Design will walk attendees through the D-Tools project lifecycle, offering best practices, extensive tips, tricks, and proven techniques to help maximise the use of D-Tools System Integrator 2015 (SI 2015).

“While we offer web-based trainings and have lots of tutorial videos, these multi-day courses provide a much deeper dive and attendees leave with a far greater understanding of the many ways D-Tools can be utilised,” says Tim Bigoness, VP of Sales and Marketing at D-Tools. “We are thrilled to be training in Austin and appreciate our MVP Partner, Screen Innovations, for graciously hosting the event.”

The schedule for the intensive multi-day training session is as follows:

  • Day one (September 16th) will serve as an introduction to SI 2015. Tips and best practice recommendations are a major part of this course and users will learn how to custom-configure the D-Tools software package to the specific needs of their company; how to build and manage their product database; manage revisions and change orders; better understand how to exploit the D-Tools reporting engine; and gain hands-on experience creating winning proposals.
  • Day two (September 17th) is a deep dive into product documentation in Microsoft Visio. Trainees will get valuable hands-on experience creating comprehensive D-Tools documentation, including Line Diagrams, Floor Plans, Elevations, Schematics, and Installation and Wiring Reports.
  • Day three (September 18th) will take users through management processes and advanced skills, such as customising reports and an introduction to the new Mobile Install feature, which gives users the power to publish Install Tasks and Service Orders to a portal powered by the D-Tools Cloud that can be accessed by those in the field as well as to send and receive device-level notifications. The training will wrap with a walk-through that details how to integrate D-Tools with QuickBooks to streamline accounting processes tied to D-Tools projects.

The multi-day D-Tools System Integrator Training will be held at Manufacturer Vantage Point (MVP) partner Screen Innovations’ Austin headquarters. Registration is now open but space is limited. Interested parties are encouraged to register: http://d-tools.com/austin-training-2015/.
