The first Introductory Level is normally offered with free with Site Licence pricing with other levels priced for local presentation by your staff.

The Training materials are designed in a prescriptive manner (read to the class) to be presented by a trainer with little experience of VSS.

The following list of levels outlines the training available for a wide variety of people from those who are just starting out with the Visual Scheduling System, to those who have worked extensively with VSS and will be using it to train other staff on how to use it.
