Mastery-Level Training Testimonials:

"The workshop manuals were much better than the standard JDE class manuals; they had tips, questions, answers, and warnings. The instructor was not only knowledgeable and informative, he had the real world experience to understand our needs and the ability to bring solutions to light in an easy-to-understand manner. He was patient and easy going. I would recommend JDEtips training to anyone with a need to gain advanced JD Edwards knowledge."

Scott Maynard, Production & Manufacturing Manager, BJ Services, Inc.

"This was by far the best class I have taken for JDE training. The instructor was superb. The class materials were excellent, as was the entire training environment."

Mark Greenfield, Application Architect, Temple Inland Inc. "I must compliment you on the excellent training I attended in Dallas! We had an awesome instructor--the perfect combination of technical expertise, humor, patience and experience. We covered so much more than I would ever have expected, and so thoroughly!! It was so far superior to my previous training from JD Edwards/Oracle, I can't wait for more to be available. Thank you for having such an excellent and unique instructor--it made the whole experience worth so much more than the cost."

Nadine Alexander, Senior Business Analyst, American Financial Realty Trust "The instructor was very patient, knowledgeable, and easy to understand. The learning environment was easy and friendly."

Carmen Yeoman, AP Supervisor, North American Construction Group
  "The instructor had excellent knowledge of the application and excellent experience from which to draw upon. I liked the detailed, step-by-step approach of the Workshop Manuals, including the applicable screen shots."

Lorna Lewis, Financial Services, The Ford Foundation "This was my first JDE training offsite. I found the materials are excellent and easy to understand; I feel very confident that if I need to refer back that I'd have no problem finding what I need. The training facility was very comfortable and our instructor did a wonderful job of "teaching" the material I go so much out of this class that I now have a better understanding of how all the different tables work together."

Melody Morris, Accounts Payable Assist. Supervisor, Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma "The class was great! I found learning about how the other companies approached problems to be a bonus to the class material."

Ed Piraino, CPIM, Business Analyst, Gast Group "Jane was very knowledgeable and demonstrated how the different topics could be applied to our organization. She was also able to answer questions and provide additional material that did not appear in the manuals"

Cheryl Stockman, Business Analyst II, Fleetwood Enterprises, Inc. "The instructor was very knowledgeable and open to further discussions to assist with workplace problems; very easy to follow and understand. I highly recommend this class."

Amanda Graff, CMA "All attendees, functional and technical, found the JDEtips Payroll training session highly interactive, challenging, and productive despite a significant variation in system process knowledge. Novices had their first look. More experienced super users and technical support staff enhanced their skills. As a result, our training sessions led us to discussion and resolution on some important business process issues. We all look forward to our next training seminar from JDEtips."

Angela Stegall, Asten Johnson "The Configurator training went very well! Ivan was able to go into much more detail and provided a lot of insight on how we are setting things up; he made many suggestions on how to make things a little easier for both the setup and execution. He was very knowledgeable and I got the answers to my questions."

LeeAnn Anderson, Manufacturing Systems Engineering Manger, Plexus Corp. Boise Idaho "I recently attended the JDEtips Accelerated Developer -- Advanced class and wanted to tell you how completely satisfied I was with the experience. Not only did I find the training material understandable and educational, Greg Kirkendall (our instructor) really took the time to make sure every student had an understanding of the current topic before moving to the next one. It was apparent from the first day that Greg had a wealth of real world 'in-the-trenches' JDE experience. Even the people running the training facility took excellent care of us. Bottom line, the training was so effective I will not only be keeping your site on the top of my department's training list, I have already notified other department heads to check your site first for all JDE training considerations. Keep up the good work!"

Michael Clark, Development Manager for Vital Terminal Management Services "I met Scott at the JDE training center in Orange County where he was teaching the class on Enterprise Asset Management. He impressed me with his knowledge and understanding of asset intensive businesses such as Graniterock. Asset management is critical for any company seeking to be profitable and stay competitive in the long run, and JD Edwards' EAM is a powerful but complex solution. With Scott's help I was able to identify and focus on the key areas that would make or break the implementations success. As I continue to expand and develop the total functionality of the EAM module, Scott will continue to be the support I rely on to get the job done."

Carl Wulf, CEM, Preventive Maintenance Services Manger, Graniterock "To Stillwater Mining Company, Penny is the master of Enterprise Report Writing. For more than two years, Penny has designed and conducted custom ERW training for our organization in addition to delivering complex reports on a contract basis. Her in-depth knowledge of the EnterpriseOne toolset and tables is a powerful pairing with her functional knowledge of the business applications. Her additional depth on accounting and financial reporting only adds to her effectiveness. Penny is the catalyst that allows us to transform data into reliable business information. Despite our increasingly complex business requirements, we have yet to encounter a Report Writing challenge that Penny could not help us solve."

Donna Vanderlinde, Senior Analyst, Stillwater Mining Company "I would like to take this opportunity to tell you, how much I appreciated having David Ashley come to our plant to give us training on JD Edwards World Security. He is a very good instructor, and he gave me the knowledge I needed to make the required changes on our system. As a result, I now have the tools I need to help Panasonic get more in line with SOx requirements. Thanks again, and I look forward to being able to use Klee Associates as a resource in the future."

JoEllyn Reid, Database Administrator, Panasonic Shikoku Electronics Corp of America (PSECA) "Kathy has an outstanding understanding of JD Edwards, and has had significant experience in the implementation and technical support of Distribution and Advanced Pricing for a wide variety of manufacturing and distribution companies. Not only does she possess an in-depth knowledge of the applications and the AS/400 Operating System but is equally proficient in working on other platforms to achieve system conversions and business integrations. Kathy's knowledge combined with her excellent problem solving skills and business acumen will allow her to quickly focus of timely and accurate solutions. I am a fan of Kathy's work and would highly recommend her for any JD Edwards project."

Thomas McLenahan, VP of IT, Sport Clips Comments from a recent EnterpriseOne Technical Class:

- "Jim was excellent in every aspect of the class"
- "Bring this guy back - he knows his stuff and is not boring"
- "Bring him back for ERW"
- "I really enjoyed this instructor's delivery of the class. I would like him to teach other technical classes. He made it fun & relaxed yet packed in a lot of info"
- "Instructor was great, very knowledgeable" A. Teichert IT staff "I want to express my appreciation for your firm's dedication to excellence in training in the area of JD Edwards modules. We were very impressed both with the organization and pace of your training materials and the depth of knowledge derived from your training class. The experience was quite refreshing compared to the diluted training approach provided in most vendor sponsored classes. I would also like to compliment Brian O'Reilly, our instructor. His knowledge and experience brought tremendous value to those of us taking the class. I will continue to keep your firm in mind when additional training opportunities present themselves at our firm."

Patrick Sutherland, ERP System Analyst, SEMATECH Inc. "The Advanced Pricing Net Change Mastery Level Workshop that was instructed by Russell Bartunek was excellent! I have attended some courses in Denver that were put on by JDE (PeopleSoft) and did not receive the level of training, information and assistance that I received attending this course. The manual that was given to us for the course will be a reference that will be used extensively as we move ahead with the setup of advanced pricing; easy to follow with the screen shots and the multiple examples. I look forward to the next opportunity I will have to attend some courses presented by JDEtips and Klee Associates!"

Gisele Reimer, Freshwater Fish Marketing Corporation "This was my first official JDE training course that I attended and I have to say that I was very impressed with our JDEtips instructor. He was well prepared for all questions that I had for him regarding JDE as a whole. The manual was very thorough and well-organized. The table of contents was useful in referencing the different topics in the manual. Even though this was a Procurement class, he was able to explain various points in Sales, Manufacturing, and other JDE modules. I thought that I was an expert in the Procurement module, but I learned many new concepts in the class that I will be able to implement in my environment. The topics that were especially useful were Job Cost and Outside Processing. I found that our current process is too cumbersome for outside processing and the information I learned will help tremendously. The instructor also gave us useful tips and advanced knowledge on topics such as PO Generator, PO Date Revision, and Commitments. He gave me some additional documentation for reference, and gave me a good business process for running MRP. Overall, I was very happy with the class. I got a lot out of the class and will be able to use what I learned with our current system. I would highly recommend this class to anyone who works with Distribution and Procurement in JDE, whether you are a beginner or advanced user. Thank you to Klee Associates and JDEtips for offering a well organized class and using topnotch professionals for instructors. I will certainly use Klee Associates again for my training needs."

Tim Kramer, Systems Analyst, Trex Company, Inc. "Andrew did an excellent job developing our Unit of Measure Workshop. Feedback from all of the participants was extremely positive. He brought to the workshop extensive knowledge, excellent communication skills, a sense of humor and somehow the ability to make Unit of Measure an interesting topic (not the easiest task!!!). Andrew was able to get the workshop attendees to be active participants. We have no hesitation to have Andrew back for more training sessions."

Nancy Allin, Director, Logistics, High Liner Foods Inc. "Pat Martino has brought a lot of value to dj Orthopedics through his custom training sessions. He tailored his presentations to address our specific process issues and questions. We have especially found that Pat is great at matching up the true potential of JD Edwards with the real life business challenges that are not text book or white paper issues."

Chris Shen, Manager, Enterprise Business Systems, dj Orthopedics "It is great to have an instructor that is willing to share all the knowledge. The manuals are very informative and easy to follow...This has been a dynamic three days! You have opened doors to new opportunities that allow us to more fully utilize JDE--and you have shown us how to improve our current business processes.

Sherry McDowell, Gowan Company "We were very pleased with the instructor's ability to veer away from the course content and into a detailed discussion of our specific Manufacturing Accounting requirements. The workbook and the instructor provided the framework for a very useful three days."

Steven French, W.L. Gore "I found the Advanced Pricing Mastery Workshop to be extremely helpful. The book is designed for the end user and takes you through step-by-step how to set up many different adjustment types. By having hands-on training with users from other companies it gives you the opportunity to compare notes and actually review other case studies and learn how to handle special situations. I especially like the Gotcha section, a section I wish I would have had before going live. It would have saved us many late nights and many bottles of aspirin."
