Training and consulting

It all started a long time ago, more than 30 years ago, when as a lecturer at the “Vinča Institute” computer school, I taught students how to use DOS, Windows, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Visual Basic… In the years after “Vinča” I worked in various jobs, I developed a large number of Excel/VBA applications, and have “been swimming in ERP waters” since 2006. This helped me to get to know business processes in companies very well, through consulting and numerous implementations. Since 2011, in addition to Excel, I started learning and teaching others “self-service business intelligence tools” (Power Pivot, Power Query, DAX), and then came Power BI, M, Microsoft 365, Copilot, Fabric… We live in very exciting times, technologies are changing rapidly, and the use of information technologies is increasingly available to ordinary people. I like to learn, I know how to transfer knowledge, and the trainings I offer are modern. They are updated several times a year in order to include the latest features of applications and services.

I offer MasterClass trainings that can help you improve existing and acquire new knowledge. They consist of about twenty modules, the trainings are intended for legal entities, for work with individuals or groups. Roughly, they are divided into two wholes: Productivity and AI (basic and advanced trainings for a wide group of users) and Business Intelligence (trainings for data analysts).

Notice: Some of the modules are, for now, offered exclusively in Serbian.

In order to maximize the effects, the teaching process consists of three phases: Assessment, Training and Verification.

In the first phase, the knowledge of the participants is assessed by completing online tests. By testing employees, it is determined how well they have knowledge in one or more areas and which training modules they should attend. The second stage is training. It is organized in groups. It consists of a theoretical part, examples (shown by the lecturer) and exercises (which the participants solve independently). Along with examples and exercises come solutions that they can always return to after training. Part of the work materials are also scripts that are designed so that they can also be used for capturing notes. At the end, after the training, the knowledge of participants is checked. The first and third steps, as well as the additional customization of the syllabus, are optional, in agreement with the client’s HR department.

There are no uniform courses. The trainings are adapted to the needs of the participants, by choosing the modules that everyone will attend. Also, it is possible to create custom workshops and perform consulting services to solve specific problems. This refers to designing reports and perform automatization through programming… The price is given by hour, for the group, and the HR department of the client can, in agreement with the lecturer, decide how many participants will attend a particular module. Also, it can change or rotate the participants for each individual training. During the entire process, there is active communication between lecturers and the HR department in order to achieve a common goal: train employees who will acquire theoretical and practical knowledge.

The training involves working in small groups and a high degree of interaction between lecturers and participants. They include work materials (examples, exercises, script) and a certificate of completed training in digital format. The programs are intensive, and the trainings are held by a certified lecturer (MCP, MOS Excel Expert, MC Power BI Data Analyst Associate). Trainings are intended for legal entities, and are usually held online. On request, they can be organized at the client’s location or another agreed location.
