Design Decisions Training Course: "To Take or Not to Take?"
2 MIN READ The Design Decisions course is a one-day, instructor-led virtual training designed for experienced implementors, architects, and aspiring architects. Strong administrators who act as internal consultants will also benefit from this course. Think of it as fitness training for OneStream architects! This course shifts from traditional teaching to coaching, guiding students through simulations of real-world scenarios that architects and application designers face. From application reviews to use case requirements and collaborative group discussions, you'll develop design decisions and ideas to strengthen your critical thinking skills essential for successful implementations. You'll practice articulating options and design decisions to a simulated client (me!) in mock design discussions, receiving real-time feedback to sharpen your skills without the risk of "blowing the deal." This course provides an "architect gym" to work out strategies, articulate design decisions, and apply collaborative critical thinking through common use cases. You'll discover the power of true collaboration with other students, gaining new insights, ideas, and communication styles that will broaden your perspective and strengthen your thinking. Whether you're currently an architect or aspire to be one, this course is designed to stimulate and empower "Architect Thinking" and challenge you to grow beyond your personal or company "echo chamber." Where else can you get coaching from a client's point of view? Just like going to the gym strengthens you physically, this course provides a "mental gym" to enhance your architectural thinking! We look forward to training, coaching, and being your “client” in this breakthrough course! Reserve your virtual “seat” and register today! Upon completion of this course a micro credential will be issued. (NA/LATAM/APAC) - Tom Linton Principal Instructor (EMEA) - Matt Grundey Principal Instructor
