Dear customer, Covid-19 has made us all think anew and we have run EQS online courses for our customers since the outbreak. It has been well received, as one can participate quickly and easily without having to travel. Below you will find information about the various EQS online courses that we offer as of today – sign up now.

Online course for Head Administrator in EQS

This course is recommended training for users who will have an administrator role in EQS. This may be that you are in the process of building up your own system, that you are new to the role of administrator or that you want to refresh old knowledge. A “Head Administrator” has administrator rights on the top unit of the organizational structure, and normally has access to all functionality and all content in the software. Extend offers two variants of this course:

• In-house course – recommended for new customers and when there are several participants from the same company (the customer’s own EQS is used)
• Open course – see our course calendar below for time (the course is conducted in a general course database)

In normal times, this is carried out as two full course days, either at Extend or at the customer’s place. The course is now also available as an online course (over the internet) with screen sharing via Microsoft Teams, divided into four sessions:

• Part 1 EQS setup: Intro to EQS, setup of user, organization and document structure
• Part 2 Documents: Functions for managing various types of documents, including process maps and document management
• Part 3 Forms and messages: Build and design forms, form settings, registration and processing of messages
• Part 4 Message overview: Design of filters and reports

It is also possible to hold company-internal courses or workshops with tailored content. For in-house courses, both the agenda and the duration of each part can be adapted. Click here for more information about our in-house courses.

Course calendar for our EQS online courses

These are primarily courses for existing customers and all courses are held online via Microsoft Teams. The courses are basically conducted in Norwegian, but it is possible to ask us if we can run them in English. If it is ok for the other participants or more who want it, courses can be conducted in English. Alternatively, you can also order this as in-company training in English (the price will then be the same as for in-company courses).
