dataPARC training provides in depth training across the entire scope of the dataPARC’s applications. PARCview users are aware of the power of this tool and its impact to the workplace, yet few can use all of the features. Chances are you have used some trends, run some centerlines, seen some graphics and maybe even entered data into an MDE. We want you to unlock the power of our applications and help to convince your boss that a trip to the Northwest is worth your time. Here are a few tips to get you on your way.
Tip #1: Make it about the Plant
Everyone can pull up a trend, but who can make the trend speak to them? dataPARC training will teach you to use trends as interactive tools to deliver the information you need most, when you need it. With an in-depth look at each of our applications, you will come away with a new understanding of how PARCview works as a suite of applications to make managing your plant easier than ever.

Tip #2: Show ROI
PARCtraining is 3 days of information, examples and practice. It is impossible not to come back without some takeaways. Receiving training directly from the engineers and support teams that you work with on a regular basis is invaluable. They understand the challenges you face and can provide tips and tools from a wide range of experiences.
Tip #3: Make it About Your Facility
We encourage participants to think of and provide examples from their own plants and mills. Make a plan of what you would like to change in your facility and what applications might make an impact. Plan on whom you would like to meet while at training. Meet face to face with the engineers or support staff that you have talked with over the phone. Or you can plan to sit down with a developer to discuss how a feature could impact your company. Share this plan with your boss to let them know you are serious about making a difference and that your training will be a valuable asset to the company.
Tip #4: Be Honest
If the other three reasons fail, fails be honest! Let your boss know you are coming to experience the Northwest culture, catch a Timbers match and try some new Microbrews. No matter the reason you want to come, if you believe in it, you can sell it. Who knows, if you sell it well, maybe your boss will want to come too.
