University of Houston System Finance Systems Training

University of Houston System chose the train-the-trainer methodology to provide end user training in the use of the new finance systems. Representatives from each campus participated in the design of the curriculum and training materials, and many will serve as trainers.  The materials may be adapted for use by the individual campus and each component will prepare a training schedule.  

Course descriptions, class schedules and online registration requests are available on the FAST Training web pages.

Training Material Updates

Initial distribution of instructional material will occur in the training environment.  Additional materials and updates to training manuals will be available from this web site.
