NORTHWIND’s new Diamond
Plus one-on-one live
training makes it easier for users to get the most from their Maestro
solution,
while maximizing their time and productivity through convenient
on-demand
learning. The
online sessions with Maestro experts provide the
widest range of system classes to meet ongoing training needs while
accommodating staff schedules.
Online Training
Increases Staff productivity
Maestro
users can access an educational curriculum featuring
live online classes and pre-recorded educational webinars as part of
their
Diamond Plus Service benefits. This new personalized Web-based training
complements NORTHWIND’s comprehensive training offerings,
creating a flexible,
blended learning experience that includes traditional classroom
training,
client-site training, and online learning.
Real-time
Assistance
Each
live training session is facilitated by a Maestro
certified expert and provides the opportunity to ask questions during
the
session. The user has access to the live, instructor-led personal topic
of
their choice. This flexibility enables Maestro users to "learn and
return," allowing them to apply new skills and knowledge immediately
after
their training session.
The
personal attention gives each user their own learning
environment and enables them to set their own pace throughout the
training, and
improve their proficiency. The main purpose is to support advanced
knowledge
gain in a convenient and highly efficient way for the user.
Flexible
Training Opportunities
The
one-on-one online training session is not intended to
replace Maestro’s current traditional onsite training
offering. The new
online training program is provided as part of a blended-learning
process that
combines onsite training and web-based tools and learning.
NORTHWIND’s
industry standard setting Diamond Plus Service
offers a variety of training options enabling clients to find the right
training and education to meet their unique needs, including:
- Free Web-based
transition-assistance for newly trained staff for three months after
Maestro is installed (scheduled regularly)

Dear Greg,
I just wanted to pass along my
sincere appreciation to you
and your team for all of your
wonderful assistance that I have
been receiving in the last 6
weeks or so when our Director of
Operations found another
opportunity that took her away
from us on short notice. I was
thrown into the fray and have
had to become better acquainted
with my mastery of Maestro. Your
team has been helpful and
supportive with any request that
I have had and I wish that you
would pass along my support to
your support.
We salute you!
Sincerely,
Matthew Lynam
General Manager
Harrison Beach Hotel

Hello Jacob:
I wanted to send you a quick note to
let you know how absolutely
wonderful your support staff has
been today. They are always great,
but today they were exceptional. As
you know, we run two programs, and
the week between the two is hectic
and the amount of work is virtually
impossible. We had two emergencies
today, brought on at our end, not
yours, and your staff was right
there to help us through.
Particularly I would like to commend
Deborah, Natalie, and Atoy. I know
there were others behind the scenes,
but those are the three I mainly
dealt with. They were instrumental
in fixing the issues, and doing it
calmly in the face of my sheer
panic!
I wanted to thank them, and to thank
you for the service your company
provides to us.
