Onsite training is available for districts of all sizes. Over the course of two days, a TransACT Certified Trainer will travel to your district to provide expert guidance on implementation and training. The first part of day one will include an executive briefing for the district executive team and a one-on-one training session for your district’s TransACT Coordinator (district trainer). For the remainder of the day, going into day two, sessions will be scheduled to train groups of people in the district on site navigation, document usage and best-practice recommendations.
