Training options to meet your needs

At ClickBase, we want to make it easy for you to get the training you need, so we offer multiple options. Every Tuesday and Thursday at 1:00PM EDT, we hold two classes: Introduction to ClickBase and Basic ClickBase Design. Both classes are hled live over the Internet with one of our our top training experts. You will have the opportunity to ask questions to make sure that you understand the concepts so that you can apply them in your company. Clients who subscribe to our support program may register at no charge. Registration is available on our web site.

Milwaukee Wi Training May 3rd, 4th and 5th

Monday through Wednesday, ClickBase is offering an in depth course in Milwaukee, WI. This will be a hands-on session so bring your laptop.

The first morning of the session will be devoted to end user training. Clients who wish to attend only this portion of the class are welcome to do so. The remainder of the class will be devoted to the development functions within ClickBase.

The first two days will be full eight hour sessions. The class will end at noon on the third day to account for travel home. Lunch on Monday and Tuesday will be provided by ClickBase in order for you to get the most out of these sessions.

Registration for the full session is $1,500 per attendee and includes the cost of lunch. Registration for Monday morning only is $300 per attendee. Additionally, each attendee will be given a 30 day trial copy of ClickBase to use during the class.

Did You Know?

Existing shortcuts can be easily duplicated using the Create Shortcut menu option. Leverage the work you’ve already done to save views you have created, and build customized reports without altering the original.

After you click on a shortcut, go to the TOOLS | CREATE SHORTCUT menu option. Select the option to Create A Shortcut Copy and click NEXT. Enter a new name for the shortcut, select the shortcut group in which it will appear, select an appropriate icon from the drop down list, and set the default layout. The result will be an exact copy of the original shortcut.

*Bonus: * If you made any layout changes prior to creating the new shortcut, the layout changes will be saved with the new shortcut.

Double Bonus: If the original shortcut had a filter window attached, the new shortcut will use the same filter window provided you did not apply any conditions prior to creating the new shortcut.
