"QAD Manufacturing Operations is by far the best course I have taken covering broad areas of QAD. Anyone, at any level will benefit from best practices to bring back and implement at their own company. The exposure to real-life customer stories provides insight into how things work in QAD without any sales pitches. I highly recommend this course for anyone wanting a deeper understanding of QAD Manufacturing Operations."

"The training we had helped us reach our inventory goals. Our goal was to reduce inventory to 2.3M from 3.2M by 12/31 and we reached 2.0M so we beat our goal!!! The training was very beneficial to us. Paul’s training on the repetitive side will also help for the planning into next year. If we have any training needs we will definitely use Strategic again. Thanks again for all your help."
