GRIP - ACCELERATED TRAINING
WHY ACCELERATED LEARNING?
In the fast-changing IT industry, acquiring knowledge about the latest technologies
and capabilities is extremely important. But acquiring new knowledge requires time.
The student needs this time to become acquainted and familiarised with the latest
knowledge. Students also need time to be able to assimilate this new knowledge.
And companies do not always find it easy to make this time available. Accelerated
learning not only means significant cost savings for the company, but also greater
flexibility.
For the employer, accelerated learning means the fastest possible way of acquiring
new employees who are fully operational.

HOW DOES ACCELERATED LEARNING WORK?
Accelerated learning can only be successful if a tailored teaching method and course
content are used. The courses provided by Plataan using the GRIP formula have been
examined in depth. Overlapping and unnecessary sections of the course have been
discarded. At the same time, the sections that are dealt with have been adjusted
so that accelerated learning is possible.
RESIDENTIAL PACKAGE
The courses are run on the basis of a residential package. This means that the students
stay at a hotel with the trainer throughout the course and this is where the training
itself takes place.
Operating in this way means that more time is available:
- The student has no travel time during the course
- The trainer is available to the student 24 hours a day
- The student is not distracted and is able to concentrate fully during the course
on assimilating the new knowledge gained
- The training may carry on into the evening hours
CONTROLLED LEARNING?
To be able to learning in an accelerated manner without losing control, a number
of control points are built into every GRIP course. These control points make it
possible to ensure that the new knowledge gained is being assimilated in the best
possible way.
These control points consist of tests to round off each section and individual
supervision of the students. This enables the trainer to monitor the progress
of the students and to test their level of accomplishment.
TARGETED LEARNING?
Plataan has set up the GRIP courses in such a way that they form a perfect balance
between practical experience and certification.
Practically oriented
The objective of each GRIP training course is directed towards the practical. The
aim is to have students ready to take on practical assignments once they have completed
the course.
Exam-focused
Each student is given an examination voucher. The aim is to have every student
certificated as a Microsoft-accredited specialist.
EXTRA CONTENT?
Practical scenarios and cases are essential in order to provide training that is
directed towards the practical. Plataan has built these scenarios and cases into
the GRIP courses. Students also get to deal with topics that are not included in
the official programmes. These subjects may be less relevant for certification exams,
but are certainly of practical value.
FULL CYCLE?
Every GRIP training course is a journey from A to Z. This means that you can come
into these courses without any prior knowledge of Microsoft Dynamics NAV.
For each of the one tracks taken Plataan asks itself the following question:
"What content does a student need to train to be a Microsoft Dynamics NAV
specialist?"
In doing this, we assume that the student has no knowledge at all of Microsoft Dynamics
NAV.
