Avaya IP office DVD
- Thread starter jd381960
- Start date
I signed up for the Delta 8 course. They sent me 2 DVDs with the courses that were online. I did not expect DVDs. I expected to do the course online like I always had. One I had done online. I did get the 5S00004I/V Avaya IP Office Advanced Configuration and Application Workshop. It is quite good actually. Its just like a Powerpoint. I think it cost $259 though.

Another reason for me to leave the distribution side of the market. I was a Avaya accredited SME trainer.
In that role whe received training material like the above DVDs and I could lead the classroom based training.
Avaya has changed their training policy were the classroom training are replaced by virtual classroom training and if we wanted to continue with classroom trainig we had to pay € 375 per student and Avaya then would send the training material directly to the students.
As a commercial company we had invest a lot of mony setting up a training room accoring Avaya rule to get the accreditation and now they are charging a lot of money per student so we can't make any money traing techs.
We left the Avaya training program and we build our own training program. I have always love to lead these trainings as a interaction between the students and me always led to a better understanding how and why stuf works as it is and training is more then teaching a monkey a nice trick.

I train people according to what I think they need to know, I personally wouldn't pay a penny for training materials/courses from Avaya, a system sat on a table that they can make/break is all that's required....and a little "do this, don't do this, even though Avaya says do this" etc

I always left the IP routing stuff for what it is as a phone system cannot compete with a dedicated router and it should not be used for that. And a lot of features are never used while some important fearures are not mentioned in the Avaya courses.
