RACKWISE offers a diverse range of modularized Training Services designed to provide customers with the most flexible training possible for their users. Training programs are structured to allow customer’s technical and business users to obtain the most effective training based on their particular job function by selecting and coupling the modules most meaningful to them. RACKWISE can help build a training program that makes sense for your users of the  RACKWISE DCiM Xtm software.

RACKWISE offers Training Units, which lets customers conveniently purchase credits that may be utilized throughout a 12-month period. This allows customers and RACKWISE to schedule progressive training sessions over the course of a year. This allows the student to quickly become most proficient on the core product, then delve into more complex areas such as customizations or exploiting more advanced capabilities of your RACKWISE DCiM Xtm software investment.

  • All Training classes are instructor-led and may be delivered either on-site or via Internet delivery means for the same price. At the present time, RACKWISE recommends on-site training at your facility to develop more interaction between students and the trainer. Onsite training, however, is subject to reimbursement of actual travel expenses.
  • Customers may purchase additional Training Units at any time, based on the total annual training program desired by customers. Volume discounts on Training Units are available.
