Multimedia Training

We recognize that classes don’t always meet the schedules or necessarily match the learning styles of some of our customers. Toward that end, Crystal Ball Services also offers self-paced
multimedia training options.

and guide you through proven methods so you can produce accurate, clear, and defensible models and risk analyses.
• Risk Analysis Using Crystal Ball. If you want to learn to use Crystal Ball risk analysis software at your own pace, our self-directed training CD, Risk Analysis Using Crystal Ball,
is packed with examples, exercises, and quizzes. The material covers a variety of industries and applications and demonstrates Crystal Ball software concepts and features.

On Site Training

Sometimes the best approach will be for you and your entire team to train together. That’s why Crystal Ball Services offers customized onsite training for your organization’s specific risk analysis and modeling needs. Custom training can be any mix of our traditional class agendas and can also include your own models.

With onsite training, your team learns the software together, fostering collaboration and standardization of risk analysis best practices. No time is lost to travel because the class is conveniently located at your office or designated site, and your whole group gets access to our expert trainer.

In addition, because the training is exclusive to your group, you can use your own models and data while still protecting your intellectual property.
