ERP systems are difficult and time-consuming to deploy successfully. One of the key reasons sited in the failure of ERP projects is the difficulty of training people effectively on the software modules. That is why 15-20% of your total project costs will be spent on training, including travel and lodging to central training facilities. Centra Software(http://www.centra.com/erp.html) has defined a new solution that leverages the power of the Web to bring globally dispersed end users together in a live virtual classroom, significantly reducing travel and lost opportunity costs.

Symposium integrates Web-based audio conferencing and remote application sharing to deliver live, leader-led group learning and self-directed study to any desktop. Using Symposium, you can replicate the benefits of a live, hands- on classroom session, dramatically improve your time-to-profit and project team productivity.

Today, Centra has set the standard for distance learning, with dozens of successful Fortune 1000 customers, including Motorola, AT&T, Bay Networks, Clark-American, and Hewlett Packard. Based on these customer successes Centra has been named one of the Upside Magazine's Top 100 Private companies to watch in 1998, and has won numerous other awards for its innovative approach to solving a difficult and costly business problem.

Symposium is the best way to rollout new technology to your employees and business partners. Visit our Web site at http://www.centra.com/erp.html for more information on Symposium, and sign up for a live demonstration.
