Teamsite and Open Deploy training

btrotter

has anyone here attended this particular training session?

http://registration.autonomy.com/autonomy/scheduledetails.php?CId=3879

or one similar that covers both teamsite and open deploy?

if so, what would give the training on a scale of 1 to 10 and what location did you go to when you received training. all comments welcomed.

Hi,
One of our colleague went for the training in Chicago and he was satisfied there.
I will not be the right person to give a rating as I have not attended it but I hope its good based on my colleague's feedback.

Thanks.

That depends on the role you fill in your organization. I'll say that most people that go on IWOV training are generally very happy with the instructors. Personally, as a developer and business consultant, I find that the training covers the features and functionality very well, *in the context for which they were intended*. By that I mean that few instructors can answer questions relating to complex implementations or "what would you do if you were presented with x, y and z requirements." They're fantastic at delivering the material, but it's not their job to figure out how to solve your particular organization's problems -- that creative part is left up to you, in piecing together what you learn in training into a real-world solution that works for you. They're instructors, not solution designers.

TeamSite isn't a baked solution that forces you down a specific path like many COTS CMS's out there do (even though the training kinda slants it that way). It's one of the most feature-rich platforms I've seen out there and you don't get anywhere without customizing it to fit your needs. And in doing so, you can get it to do just about anything and there isn't usually an answer that fits all customers.. hence why instructors can only show you the door -- you are the one that must walk through it.

Not looking for them to do my job. Was just curious how the training sessions were. Sometimes you pay 3 grand and get 3 dollar training. Wanted to make sure it was worth the price of admission since I've never been to an Autonomy/Interwoven training session on their turf. Thanks for the info.

Yes, sorry, didn't mean to come across as assuming you did. The point I was trying to get across is that, in my opinion and experience, the training is somewhat limited in terms of real-world examples and I'd hate for anybody to walk away from the product stack just because the training didn't show its full potential.

It does (or used to) depend somewhat on the trainer too - some of them were far more involved in real-world examples and thus were able to enter into such discussions (usually during breaks or after the official session ended) - but that's a "bonus" - not something you can count on.
