Testimonials: Training

"I am very glad that I traveled all the way from Peru to the workshop in Massachusetts. Although I consider myself an accomplished Administrator's Plus user, I was amazed at how many little tricks I learned that have made my life and job much easier! Thanks to the helpful staff at Rediker and I look forward to attending workshops in the future."

"Thank you! Thank you!  Thank you!  Every person at the Rediker home office (training workshop) makes you feel so welcome. We were well fed and well informed. The information is presented in a way that is easily understood. All questions are answered, suggestions are welcome and training guides are easy to read."

"The software is so powerful that I find it helpful to attend workshops about every two years. These workshops are great because you learn what's new and improved with Administrator's Plus and you meet people from all over the world. The presenters are knowledgeable and very friendly, just like the software."

Nancy Boros, Director of Administrative Services
St. Scholastica Academy
Chicago, Illinois

"I really enjoyed the hospitality of all the Rediker family! Please, continue to train and entertain the way you do. I am your biggest fan and advocate not only because the software is the best, but I believe the people are the best! I absolutely love the way the software continues to develop from the suggestions/wants of educators in the field, as well as the dreamers who have been in the field and continue to know education, educators, students, parents etc…

have served my current school as assistant principal, dean of students, teacher and summer school principal, and I still love education, but this workshop was an epiphany for me. I really believe the best way to effect education is through technology. Thank you to all the presenters at the conference for their visible passion for education...."

"I attended the Spring Training Conference and found it a most positive experience. By the end of the week I felt that I had learned many new skills and gained a thorough understanding into the workings of the program. I am now able to use the various modules much more confidently and efficiently.

The open labs at the end of each day's training were particularly helpful. They provided an opportunity to talk with the Technical Support Staff on a one-to-one basis about ways in which the program could be more effectively implemented in my own school. Each of my questions (no matter how basic) was clearly and patiently answered.

All in all, I felt this was one of the most worthwhile of any training session I have attended. I cannot recommend it too highly. It was certainly worth the long trip from Spain and I hope to be able to attend other sessions in the future."

"It will be the best money you ever spent. Go to a training session. It's worth it. Well worth it!"

"I'm back to work and I just wanted to drop you this email to let you know what a wonderful time I had at the Rediker (training) conference! Rich Rediker and all the software trainers and technical staff were helpful and warm. You all made the training experience enjoyable.

I left the conference with a new confidence that I can now manage our school's data base and report card system. Rediker's excellent staff inspired me to learn how to implement everything available with Administrator's Plus in order to bring our school fully into the computer age."

"We just had a two day training session. It was awesome and very beneficial... We have had Rediker for about 8 years and there were lots of things that (the trainer) showed, worked through, and guided us to that were not being used... With the small size of our school and the budget constraints, this localized training was some of the best use of time and money. Thank you for the great training."

"I had training recently, and I want to convey how pleased I am with my experience. It was my first experience with Administrator's Plus and it was a fantastic one! Your trainer was very friendly and capable. I was a bit nervous about doing the training as I’ve had little to no experience with the software. Your trainer was able to put me at ease and taught me a great deal.

Thank you so much for your help, I'm looking forward to my next training in August....Your trainers are fantastic! Thank you Rediker Software."

"I just want to pass on to you that I have enjoyed working with AP so much. When we were in Springfield for the training workshop years ago, I was amazed that you not only taught the sessions, but you were at the breakfast table visiting with us. I’m sure with the “hands on” approach you take and keeping a personal hand in the reality portion of your business, Rediker Software will continue to grow and grow.

I have worked in the IT field in various ways for many years and I have never encountered a company with such regard for its customers. All the best and thanks for a great program !!"

"We have been using Administrator Plus since 2001 and I love it. When we first purchased it I came to the training in Springfield and it was truly wonderful. It made all the difference. The program is wonderful but the support people at Rediker are unbelievable... There has never been a time when I have called that everyone was not extremely helpful and just so pleasant to talk to."

"I loved the workshop!"

Gwen Hunter, Data Systems Tech

"As a new school secretary, I found the summer (training) workshops on the Database and Attendance modules to be invaluable. Howard presented the information clearly and logically and we were able to practice immediately with the laptops each participant had been provided. They are a very customer-focused company and I won't hesitate to contact their Support Department when I have a question."

"The workshop was fantastic. I really learned all the things that I had hoped to and more. The new features of the software are just what we needed. Thanks so much for the excellent workshop!"

Mary Furse, IT Coordinator
New Milford, Connecticut

"I came to the workshop with some experience using Administrator's Plus and Grade Quick so I took the advanced session. These sessions were great, it was nice to dig deep into the modules and get guidance with some of the advanced tasks. The trainers are A+. But the best part was being able to talk to other schools about the software and how they utilized it."

Karleen Estenson, Technology Coordinator
Four Winds Community High School
Fort Totten, North Dakota

"I attended the Fall Training Conference as a fairly new Rediker user. The week-long workshop was excellent! From the conference rooms, meals, technology and number of Rediker staff available, it was one of the best trainings I have attended.

What an enthusiastic and organized staff! The presentations were packed with useful, practical information, and the trainers were well-prepared and patient. The amount of information I gained and was able to come back to my school and implement was tremendous!

The open lab in the evenings was a great place for one-on-one assistance from Rediker's technical support staff (and it was nice to put a face to the names of those people we talk to all the time!!).

An all-around great job by the Rediker Staff!"

Anne Wightman

"Thank you so much for a wonderful week... I was so amazed and impressed by the energy and dedication of all of your staff... The workshop organization was great! Each session I went to was packed full of great tips and taught by enthusiastic and caring folks! The facility was perfect! The food was wonderful! Don't change a thing about that!

Thanks again, I learned so much and had a lot of fun with some really great folks! Hope to see you next year!"

"...The friendly, skilled, knowledgeable people at this summer's training went out of their way to, not only provide that training, but to accommodate whatever special needs and questions about implementation that I had. I left there feeling that I had dealt with professionals that really cared about the customer... even after the purchase. And even more than the 'bottom line.'"
