All of our courses are delivered by our own, in-house, highly experienced trainers, who specialise in training i2 software. We believe that to learn software effectively you need access to a friendly and professional training environment where you have the maximum time spent hands-on using the software; where questions and discussion are encouraged, and that makes you think about how anything you learn will be applied back at work.

Our training uses sets of training data that we have created to look and feel familiar. We will never ask you to use or provide examples of your real data or be in a position to access it.

You will use an array of example training data, such as:

• Intelligence reports including: People, Places, Vehicles, Telephones and Companies; Excel 
  Spreadsheets including: Person data and Communication records

This course is aimed at:

• New users of iBase
• Self-taught, or informally taught, users
• Users who need to refresh their knowledge of iBase

You must be familiar with Microsoft Windows, opening, closing and saving files. All courses are 
conducted in English so you should have a good understanding of spoken and written English.

Please note: translators can be used on closed courses.

Once this foundation course on iBase has been completed we have additional training courses to attend, including:

• Any iBase Level 2 - Progression course

If using i2 Analyst's Notebook, then following the i2 Analyst's Notebook Standard course (Level 1 - Foundation), we recommned:

• Using iBase with i2 Analyst's Notebook course (Level 2 - Progression)

We recommend that once a user has completed a training course, they spend a few months using the learnings before embarking on any additional courses. This ensures that the user has sufficient time to apply learnings in their job role and maximise the benefits of attending the training. 

Our online courses are run using virtual machines, with everything you need provided in a secure 
and straightforward environment. 

It is a simple process, and we will send all the relevant links and details on how to do this. 

You can use your own personal computers to attend this training as we provide the i2 software 
and course materials. This is an option being used by customers where IT policy prevents them 
accessing the environment on a work computer.
