I HIGHLY recommend the EDI Academy Course to anyone who wants to know anything about Electronic Data Interchange. This course breaks down the EDI trade into a visual that is easy to understand while digging into coding and mapping, which is not my expertise. I finished this course with so many new ideas to put into action as well as ways to fix or at least understand issues and problems we had been experiencing. The Best Business Practices was great so you can understand how everyone else is tackling the same kinds of issues and learn what to do and what not to do. EDI is a great tool for business and when it works right is smooth as can be. This course helped me understand the process as a whole and I only wish I took it sooner.

I tried reading books, watching videos but it was hard - the live classes worked because they held my interest, are very well organized, each class focused on one specific document type at a time– we were not jumping all over the place like the videos I was watching.The sessions were well prepared and very logical in their presentation and the 90 minutes per day was just enough. I plan to take other classes at EDI Academy – I am interested in E-Commerce and Finance – and online classes work best for me.

EDI Support, Experian Health

I started the class with a very "birdseye" view of EDI, I knew what the different messages were for and how to find the information I was looking for but not what they were named or how they were important. After the class I am now able to speak better as to where the information in the message is, what it is for, and why it is important.

Jennifer Milligan

Michael's breakdown of reading each type of X12 message (i.e. 270/271, 835) really allowed me to get a better understanding of how to decipher the data within these types of transactions.

I would recommend this class for anyone thinking of transitioning from Supply to Healthcare!

Tanya Williams

Lead Technical System Analyst, CareFirst BlueCross

Overall the class was an eye opener. It revealed that the edi file is standardized enough that it is transportable from one industry to another (Healthcare to Retail, etc.). The class puts the information into 'human' aspects to enforce the fact that this is simple communication at it's best when it comes to electronic data. It also helps to eliinate' the fear / intimidation that you can get when starting to work with these types of files. In addition, it assures you that active involvement with the files will support better understanding as you gain experience in looking at the files.

The two-day training provided by the EDI Academy was top notch in terms of breadth of knowledge. The basics and foundations are covered to sufficient degree that one can understand the full range of core EDI concepts. These core concepts are reinforced with real life examples from the instructor's many years of experience on mission critical EDI projects.What truly made this training experience worthwhile were the detailed answers to questions regarding to the classes personal projects and listening to the questions posed by others that ensured no stone was left unturned. I would not hesitate to recommend this class to anyone wanting to obtain a firm background of core EDI concepts in the short span of two-days.

Impressive amount of material covered in a short time period, but it was easy to follow along and keep up. Also greatly appreciated the individual feedback on our situations due to the smaller class sizes.

The class was very informative and moved at a great pace. The instructor involved and pulled examples from each of the participants. His knowledge of the material was vast, but he was able to present it in layman's terms.

This is an excellent course for individuals who will support EDI in their companies as well as individuals who want more information on how EDI can support their company’s data exchanges with their Trading Partners. It gave a nice high level overview of the types of documents such as Invoices, Purchase Orders, Payments, and HR data that can be quickly transacted with confirmation of receipt and notification of errors.It would be very beneficial for AR, AP, HR and Sales staff who want to understand the benefits and short falls of processing of electronic data through EDI.

Michael made everyone feel comfortable to the point where you WANTED to ask more questions. Each question answered added that much more to the learning experience. The mini-quiz on mapping is a fun way to quickly apply what you learned during the seminar.

The two day training course "EDI fundamentals and Best Practices" was a comprehensive course that solidified the EDI day to day responsibilities that I am responsible for in my organization. The instructor was very knowledgeable and very comfortable with the subject of EDI. He was able to answer all of my questions and most specifically was able to relate to my questions from a business perspective standpoint.I really appreciated the business knowledge, SAP knowledge and how the instructor was able to tie it all together so that it was very understandable. I feel very fortunate to have found this training in an online search. It was exactly what I had hoped for in an EDI class.
