Prerequisite Training and Environment Requirements:

All attendees must have studied the Introduction to Primavera P6 EPPM Release 8.x manual available on PGBU
partner searchlight. Without a thorough understanding of this basic end user functionality the boot camp will be of little
use.

Additionally, attendees should have read the Designing and Configuring Primavera Solutions in EPPM P6R8.x manual
which provides the supporting material for the boot camp and should be looked at in conjunction with P6 EPPM
overviews and materials available on oracle.com and referenced in the Learn More tab on this site. A business scenario
will be provided on day one of the course. This will allow attendees to configure a system from a new database and
present to the group on the final day of the training. Some homework should be expected in order to practice the topics
learnt in class against the scenario.
Both of the manuals referenced above map to the standard shipped databases available on e-delivery. Participants are
encouraged to have either installed EPPM via e-delivery or have a hosted solution for pre-requisite work.
All participants are required to bring a laptop to the training. The primary method of delivery will be viable a cloud
