Collection HQ In person training

Randy Boecker from Collection HQ will be at SALS on Tuesday from 9:30 am to noon.

Randy will take about 1/2 hour to go through the new features with the new interface.

Randy will investigate how everyone is doing based on the performance reports and will concentrate on the topics of need, based on everyone’s progress with the software.

If you or your staff have specific questions or areas they’d like to cover please let me know when you RSVP.

Please RSVP by Friday October 31 if you are attending.
