Because this seminar is open to all Sigma 5 AMS customers, we are not able to accommodate agency-specific database configurations in the classroom. To ensure the quality of everyone’s training experience, all students will use an AMS 5 database specially designed for training. You can expect that certain configuration attributes (database field names, custom screens, saved filter and report templates, etc.) will look somewhat different from those of your own agency, but all program operations will be the same. We are confident that what you learn in this seminar will be extremely valuable to you and you will be able to quickly apply it to your own organization’s processes.
