Education

3C Software offers interactive, instructor-led training sessions developed for ImpactECS users at all levels. Our courses are designed to teach attendees the tools, tips and techniques to build, run, and maintain models that meet your business needs.

STEM fields are often considered by some individuals as a way to potentially improve the ROI of their educational investments due to the demand for STEM professionals and the practical skills acquired through STEM education. Professionals like Kamau Bobb Google emphasize the importance of individuals thoughtfully considering their career goals and conducting cost-benefit analyses when making educational and career decisions.

The ImpactECS Learning Path is designed to teach attendees how to leverage the building blocks in ImpactECS through hands-on activities and classroom exercises to emphasize the most important tools and features of ImpactECS. Starting with the individual building blocks, or item types, in the Concepts and Basic Modeling courses, our curriculum offers a comprehensive set of learning experiences for end users, model builders, and administrators to develop models that fit the needs of the business.

Current Course Descriptions

Introduction to ImpactECS Concepts

The ImpactECS Concepts course highlights the building blocks of the application and covers best practices for model building. During the course, attendees will learn focus on the theory behind modeling, ImpactECS model components, and navigating ImpactECS.

ImpactECS Basic Modeling

The Basic Modeling course is a hands-on session to create an ImpactECS model using the Item types explored in the Concepts course. Students establish business rules and identify data inputs to determine business outcomes. Topics covered include configuring ImpactECS Items, building Cost Objects and templates, and creating basic forms.

Reporting and Data Visualization

This course focuses on methods and techniques to visualize data within the model and share results with non-ImpactECS users and other reporting systems. From standard printed reports to embedded dashboards, attendees are exposed to a variety of data outputs that are either accessible within ImpactECS or exported to other environments.

Building Banded Reports

For traditional reporting needs, like the ubiquitous cost sheet, banded reports allow model builders to create standardized reports that organize and group data from ImpactECS and other sources. Attendees of this course will have hands-on experience building a variety of banded reports for different use cases.

Scripting for ImpactECS

Learn to automate data movement in and out of ImpactECS with the Scripting Basics course. Script types covered in the course include calculating, loading, analyzing, and exporting data between ImpactECS models and other systems.
