Have you heard about the OnePoints Program?
2 MIN READ What is it? OnePoints is a non-prescriptive program that allows certified individuals to earn points for activities such as OneStream training, Tech Talks, and technical webinars among many others. Achieving 40 OnePoints PRIOR to a certification expiration date extends a certified status for an additional 24 months! Who is it for? The OnePoints Program is applicable to anyone that holds an active OneStream certification.

Certified individuals still have the option to sit for an updated exam to extend their certifications instead. Which activities are OnePoints-eligible? Visit the OnePoints webpage on the Certification website to learn more about the OnePoints Program, including a complete list of OnePoints-eligible activities with the associated number of OnePoints and how to submit your request for extension.

Completion statues for Instructor-led and on-demand training are automatically being tracked in your CertMetrics account.

3 MIN READ OneStream Global Education Services is excited to announce the release of the new Introduction to OneStream and OneStream Essentials: Getting Started with OneStream courses. Getting Started with OneStream has been our flagship introduction course and has been offered in three formats: Instructor-Led Training, Premium On-Demand with Labs (Paid), and On-Demand without Labs (Free). The Premium On-Demand and Instructor-Led Training versions of these courses have served our Technical Users, Partners, and Consultants well. These offerings will remain but have been updated with much of the content greatly streamlined and updated to comply with OneStream 8.5. Our Business End Users have provided feedback about the free version of this course, stating that it was too long and too technical, and because the name was the same as the paid courses it caused some confusion. We listened and have created a new free course designed specifically to fit the needs of those who want to get up-and-running with OneStream quickly: Introduction to OneStream. What is Happening? Getting Started with OneStream (Free) is now Introduction to OneStream (Free). Our Premium On-Demand and Instructor-Led Training courses include new content that has been streamlined and updated for OneStream 8.5 and beyond. The change to our flagship lineup better aligns with our two unique audiences: Business End Users and Technical Users. Business End Users: Introduction to OneStream (Free) OneStream 8.5 and beyond Demo Videos Included Micro Credential 4 Hours On-Demand only All users are welcome to take this course, but Technical Users must complete the Getting Started with OneStream course as part of the First Project Readiness learning path Technical Users: Getting Started with OneStream Premium On-Demand & Instructor-Led Training (Paid) OneStream 8.5 and beyond Includes Interactive Labs and a dedicated section for Administrators 7 CPE Credits for On-Demand / 8 CPE Credits for Instructor-Led Training Micro Credential Additional Technical Content 6 Hours for On-Demand / 1 Day for Instructor-Led Training Prerequisite for follow-on OneStream Administration course and beyond Part of the First Project Readiness learning path When Does This Change Happen? The new Introduction to OneStream (Free) and updated Getting Started with OneStream courses are available starting July 9, 2025. Who Is This For? Business End Users â Need to know that the free course has been revamped and has a new name. Technical Users â Need to know that existing courses have been streamlined and updated for OneStream 8.5. What Happens to Getting Started with OneStream (Free)? This course will remain on OneStream Navigator and new and existing customers can register for the course any time between now and July 31, 2025. At that time registration will be closed. Anyone who has registered for the course will see the course in their âActivityâ dashboard and will have until September 30, 2025, to complete the course. At that time, the course will be retired for all learners. What Is Different Between the old Getting Started with OneStream (Free) and the new Introduction to OneStream (Free)? The free version of Getting Started with OneStream was essentially a leaner version of the paid course, lacking interactive labs but retaining technical content. Introduction to OneStream has all updated content (for OneStream 8.5 and beyond) and eliminates some of the more advanced technical content, making it easier for Business End Users to complete the course and earn a micro credential. Introduction to OneStreamâs new streamlined content only takes four (4) hours to complete â half the time required by Getting Started with OneStream (free). What Now? Enroll in the new On-Demand courses today, or register for an upcoming Instructor-Led Training by visiting OneStream Navigator.Updates to the OneStream Community Blog Experience
