    CNI Brings E-Training to You
     

    Training - it is without a doubt the most important money you spend on a software installation. Without the proper training, it is probable that your implementation will suffer. We are here to help. With 3 different types and levels of training, CNI can help you make the most of your investment in your software.

    Group E-Classes

    We know you are busy. We know how hard it is to get out of the office for a day, or even half a day. Webinar Training was created for that purpose - you need training but you don't have a lot of time. Our webinar will be focused on the products most often used in a law firm, and we will be adding to our schedule all the time, so check back often. If there is a class you would like to take, but do not see it here, please contact Ron Carter via email at rcarter@cni-incorporated.com with your suggestion.

    Firm E-Classes

    These sessions will be scheduled specifically for one firm, and last for 2 hours. Our trainer will remote into your computer and assist you with your actual data. During this time, the firm can set the agenda (we can help if you prefer). Whether it be general training, productivity enhancing tools, process evaluations and suggestions for improvement - you tell us and we will deliver. Please contact Ron Carter at our office (513) 312-8381 or rcarter@cni-incorporated.com and he will be happy to provide you with more information about scheduling one of these Firm Sessions.

    On-Site Training

    The Internet has changed how we do business. The majority of the training we have done in the past has been us coming to your office. In some instances, there is no substitute for that, for many reasons. We still offer that level of service, and are committed to working with you and your firm in the way you feel most comfortable. Whether here in our back yard, or across the country, our consultants will travel to you and assist your firm with your training needs. Please contact Ron Carter at our office (513) 312-8381 or rcarter@cni-incorporated.com and he will be happy to provide you with for more information.
