Crystal Training Schedule


Regional Hands-on Training

Note: Our Crystal Reports training is tailored specifically for FIMS clients. We do not offer general Crystal Reports training.

There are no regional hands-on training sessions scheduled at this time. We will be scheduling more sessions at a later date. Please check back often.

Online Classroom Training (WebEx)

Note: Pricing is per workstation connected to the session. Multiple people at one workstation need a speaker phone.

These live sessions run every Wednesday at 2:00 PM Eastern Time. Attending a Basic training class, or an understanding of the topics covered in preceding sessions, is a prerequisite for attending an Intermediate or Advanced class.

There are two separate training tracks, with sessions running every other week for each track. In the following schedule, Track 1 sessions are listed in Red, and Track 2 sessions are listed in Blue.

Sessions on Converting Old Reports to SQL 92 are available on the first Thursday of each month.
