What to expect
We know how important it is to feel confident when using new software – so we have introduced even more training workshops designed to help you up-skill as a new starter or refreshing your existing knowledge.
Some of these sessions will be in-person at our Milton Keynes office, while the others will be hosted online. They'll focus on processes within Student Web, KxStudent, KxWelcome, KxConferencing, KxResidential, KxPlorer and KxArchiver. These sessions lay the groundwork for advancing your knowledge or refreshing existing skills.
If you're new to your team or would like some refresher training, come along and join in.
While the on-site sessions will run from 10 AM to 4 PM and include lunch, the virtual ones will be shorter sessions. It will also be a great opportunity to meet colleagues from across the sector and network with other users, a great way to share new ways of working.
Numbers are limited, as we want to give everyone a great experience, so please only two delegates from each organisation for on-site sessions.
