We are excited to launch our next cycle of web-based SkySpark Essentials training.
The next cycle will start on Monday, March 22. The training will be presented in eight separate 120-minute sessions:
Mon – Thur, Mar 22nd - 25th from 11:30 AM – 1:30 PM ET (New York time)
Mon – Thur, Mar 29th - April 1st from 11:30 AM – 1:30 PM ET (New York time)
With the courseware divided into 8 sessions, a full training cycle will utilize two weeks of calendar time. Because this is live interactive training, students registering for a class need to plan to attend all sessions in a single cycle. It will not be possible to mix students from different cycles together.
We will be limiting attendance to ensure adequate ability for instructors to respond to individual students. Please be sure that you can be available for all sessions in the entire cycle before registering.
Web-based Essentials Training class price is $990 list per student.
The following information provides a detailed review of the requirements to attend a web-based training course. Please review to confirm that you can achieve the requirements before registering.
Web-based Training Requirements and Instructions
We want to make sure the training goes smoothly, and everyone gets maximum benefit from the session. To do that we need to make sure everyone is prepared before the training sessions, so please review and follow these instructions in advance.
Module 1 – SELF DIRECTED PREPARATION WORK - Review of SkySpark User Apps and Installation of SkySpark Software
The goal of Module 1 is for the student to have SkySpark installed on their own computer and to have familiarity with the use of all of the user-oriented Apps (Spark, KPI, Energy, and Historian).
Follow these instructions to accomplish that goal:
Requirement 1. Get Familiar with SkySpark. Attend a SkySpark Deep Dive Demonstration webcast to get a detailed overview of the Apps and core concepts. Contact us for access to a recorded version of it will not be possible to attend a live session (which is preferred). A schedule of our upcoming SkySpark Demonstration webcasts can be found here
Students are expected to utilize the information presented in the live demonstration and the training videos shown below to practice the use of the various SkySpark Apps to achieve competence with the product as a “user” before attending the web-based training sessions. In addition to attending a Demonstration webcast, students should review the selected training videos shown below. Note: You will need a user account on SkyFoundry.com to access these videos (see requirement 2 below).
Requirement 2. All students need a user account on the SkyFoundry secure site. Please let us know as soon as possible if you need an account or have any trouble accessing your existing account.
Requirement 3. Each student must have their own computer and be able to connect to a licensed copy of SkySpark (either installed on your computer or an accessible remote instance). The training is conducted with the latest version of SkySpark. All students should have the current version installed. The computer should be relatively modern with a current browser (IE 11, Firefox, Safari, or Chrome). You must also have local admin rights on your computer to do some of the exercises. We also recommend that students have two monitors connected during the training sessions.
This document includes instructions for installing SkySpark as well as some pre-session work which will accelerate your understanding of SkySpark and help you get the most out of the class. If you do not have SkySpark loaded on your computer or are not able to connect to a running copy of SkySpark that you will use for the training, please work with your internal SkySpark team or your SkySpark provider, or contact SkyFoundry to get the software loaded on your PC. We are not able to address software installation issues in the live sessions.
