A growing and more demanding business environment requires not only tools that will deliver business success, but also professionals with the expertise in maximizing the use of these business solutions. On October 22-27 at AMA Makati, Microsoft opened its first-ever Public University to all those interested, from students, Information Technology (IT) professionals to business owners. The Microsoft Dynamics Public University offers courses on the full range of Microsoft Dynamics business solutions, including financial management, customer relationship management, retail management and supply chain management.
"We are undertaking the Microsoft Dynamics Public University project to provide businesses and individuals a more affordable way to hone their skills in Enterprise Resource Planning. We are constantly finding ways to bring tools and opportunities that will help people make an impact on the success of a company," said Lyn Reyes, Business Lead for Microsoft Business Solutions, Microsoft Philippines.
The six-day certification training on financial management using Microsoft Dynamics GP is in cooperation with Infosoft International Solutions, Inc., a Microsoft Dynamics Certified Partner. This training will be the first of the three-part series with the other two programs focusing on Microsoft Dynamics AX and Microsoft Dynamics NAV.
Microsoft Dynamics GP is a complete and scalable business management solution that provides growing and midsize organizations robust financial and operational functionality such as business intelligence, reporting, budgeting, and forecasting. Microsoft Dynamics GP maximizes productivity in the entire organization, and enables individuals to make informed business decisions.
The six modules include the Foundation Module, which will focus on the basics of using the Microsoft Dynamics GP series; the General Ledger Module, which will help in effectively utilizing the General Ledger's features; the Payables Management Module, which will train participants to make quick and smart decisions about a company's payables; the Receivables Management Module, wherein efficient receivables processes will be tackled; the Bank Reconciliation Module, which will allow participants to make an effective comparison of a company's checkbook and bank statements to reveal possible discrepancies and the Fixed Assets Module on the last day, which will help participants to become confident in managing a company's fixed assets.
Other than the in-depth training on Microsoft Dynamics GP, the fee of P35,000 also includes a certification exam, which participants are required to complete before October 31, 2007. This certification will give participants an opportunity to be part of the select-few group of Microsoft Dynamics consultants, whose services are highly demanded by the business community.
Joris Spanhoff, Chief Executive Officer, Infosoft International Solutions, Inc. sees great potential in this initiative. "The Microsoft Dynamics Public University is another way to increase the number of Microsoft Dynamics consultants in the country. This increase will benefit not only local businesses but also the Filipino IT industry, by producing a ready pool of skilled and competent consultants."
The University's top five students will also be offered an on-the-job training with Microsoft Dynamics partners. This will enable them to apply the concepts and best practices they learned in financial management using the Microsoft Dynamics GP series.
