Operations

This track provides all administrative users with the necessary knowledge required to set up the software. It covers the setup basics of Applied TAM, how to assign security, and daily administrative tasks. You’ll learn how to set up and process downloads and suspense. Every agency is different and has their own requirements and preferences, but everyone will go through the same steps to set up their systems. Each class gives you the chance to ask questions and collaborate in a classroom setting.
