Tags:
online - distance education

Overview Cork City Council provides local government services to 123,000 people in Ireland's second largest city. Cork City wanted to train 350 users in Web-enabled functionality of Oracle's JD Edwards Enterprise One following upgrade from JD Edwards World and ensure that staff is competent in all basic functionality before going live to minimize disruption to business activities. The challenge was to test users on their knowledge and enable them to refresh, update, and improve their skills as needed at their own pace and provide the highest quality training at the lowest cost. Cork City Council implemented Oracle User Productivity Kit, a complete online solution for kick-starting user training while providing time and cost savings following an upgrade or new implementation.
