Microsoft Dynamics Iskwelahan Offered now at DLSU, will also extend to other institutions

Microsoft Philippines, Inc and De la Salle University - Industrial Engineering Department (DLSU-IE), recently inked a partnership for the implementation of Microsoft Dynamics Iskuwelahan Program. The program aims to offer Enterprise Resourse Planning (ERP) and Customer Relationship Management (CRM ) courses to schools, universities and colleges.

Microsoft Dynamics Iskwelahan is open to other universities and collegiate-level institutions who wish to avail of the most advanced software.

The DLSU-CIE DLSU-IE, currently offering two minors: Information Technology and Service Management, which has pioneered this new product solution, has shared with Microsoft Dynamics, the optimism of this partnership and is equally confident that their concerted efforts will further value education to students as they become equipped with that edge to be competitive in seeking jobs. This is also in tandem with the challenge of incorporating more ERPs to the academic curriculum and integration of ERPs as subjects that will further hone IT capabilities of student-graduates who are vying for work in the increasingly competitive corporate sector.

The main value of Microsoft Dynamics Iskwelahan is in the way it offers enhanced and integrated business applications software for classroom backed with technical support from product experts and easy access to Internet-based training. It promises to be an exciting, interactive way of furthering links and know-how between IT-fervent students and progressive, forward-thinking educators who are also the keys to success of their students with the most updated tools and support that can be suited to different budget requirements.

Microsoft Dynamics Iskwelahan can be availed of the short and academic courses, both of which are of given to the school for instructional purposes. The short courses will take six weeks and it will cover the modules of Basic Financials, Trade and Logistics plus certification upon completion.

The academic courses, which are designed specifically to provide resources for Computer Science, Engineering, MIS/CIS and IT departments in a very accessible and affordable way, can be completed in within one-year period. Its courses include Basic Financials, Trade and Logistics, basic Manufacturing and Human Resources. In addition to certification upon completion of course, students will enjoy the benefit of a three-month on-the-job training with selected Microsoft Dynamic partners.
