Back in GoldMine's early days, one company recognized the potential of GoldMine and created classroom training materials. That company was The Last Word, and this same training method has been in use to this day, growing along with GoldMine (and boy has GoldMine grown!).

People all over the world have learned GoldMine from The Last Word in the last 10 years. Even GoldMine's own employees have been taught using their training solutions, some who still work at FrontRange today! It's a testament to their unique approach and the ease of use of their courseware.

Taking powerful GoldMine features and breaking them down so they're easy to understand. Each lesson is oriented around a particular task you might encounter on any given day using GoldMine. The entire three-guide course set is modeled on a fictional company, and you learn GoldMine as you assume the role of a sales manager and perform tasks you might perform on the job. It's a great way to learn GoldMine, and people love it.

And it's the only courseware which corresponds with their interactive training. Often students like to have both, keeping the guide as a reference and the CD as a tool to brush up their skills interactively. Check out our CD-ROM Training page for more information on our CDs.

Bound so they'll easily lay flat, leaving both hands free, our GoldMine student guides are liberally illustrated with crisp screenshots, and sprinkled with tips and tricks pointing out gotchas and valuable information you can use to make your workday easier. (And yes, you can read the print in the screenshots!) Review questions test the student's knowledge after each section.
