The overwhealming majority of individuals who attend courses with Simonson Technology Services are pleased with their experience. In the rare instance that a student's expectations are not met, we do what is necessary to make the situation right. Just look at some of these positive comments.
Your site using your equipment
Most often companies need to have our instructors come to their sites to deliver training. Our instructors are flexible when dealing with the dynamic changes of the IT industry. In general instructors stay after class to answer questions and work with students one on one. If necessary, we can arrange to work with students before and after classes to ensure the delivery is a success.
We have instructors close to major airports in the following cities: Reno, San Francisco, and Dallas. Our course material is printed at our corporate headquarters in Reno, and delivered to your site on or before the day of the delivery.
If any minor implementations, or configuration need to happen as part of the training we can accomodate those as well. If major planning, implementation, or configuration work need to happen as part of the delivery, contact us to discuss specifics. In general, we can accomodate these needs under our consulting offering. For labs, equipment from your site will be used for the training process.
Price for an on-site delivery varies with the duration of the class and course material. The price for using equipment in Reno for the labratory exercises incurs a slightly higher cost than using onsite equipment. The cost of the instructors airfare, lodging, and modest food expenses are passed on to the customer.
Your site using our equipment
A challenge for most companies is to have the appropriate Lab and Training equipment to accomodate a particular class delivery. There may be some equipment, but it may be consistently used or in production and isn't available to "break". Simonson Technology Services has the answer. Our training lab has 14 SUN Ultra 10 Workstations, with dual hard drives, connected to an Sun SAN.
The advantage that Simonson Technology Services has over other IT Training / Consulting providers is that our entire facility can be accessed over the internet. We have a T1 connection with our ISP that makes it possible to remote display a graphical connection to any of our SUN machines using a combination of SSH and VNC. All that's needed from the customers side is outbound SSH access from within their companies firewall and clients with SSH installed to connect with. Because no changes are taking place to the client, a personal workstation is a good option. Click here for the STS requirements document, and instructions on how to connect.
We even have a teminal concentrator that allows a student from a remote location to watch and control the reboot process, including sending a break and manipulating the workstation from the OK prompt.
Price for an on-site delivery varies with the duration of the class and course material. The price for using our equipment for the labratory exercises is slightly more expensive than using equipment provided by the customer. The cost of the instructors airfare, lodging, and modest food expenses is not included. Contact us for specific pricing information.
