Workshops
Together with our Enterprise Applications team, C&IT Training offers workshops that can be tailored to a school, college, or departments' specific needs. These workshops are designed to help Wayne State employees identify and utilize enterprise IT systems and services that can be used to improve their business processes or fulfill new business needs.
These advanced training options are designed to help users identify the proper tool to implement with a project. Workshops begin with a consultation where the customer provides details about their needs, and C&IT recommends the best tool to create a solution. Users can expect to take away the knowledge needed to create a new business process that their team can own and manage.
