Australasian Transaction Document Specialist Schools

The acadami Transaction Document Specialist School is designed to educate all professional staff within the industry. Anyone who has to communicate (verbally or in writing) with other functions, should receive their accreditation.

The biggest misconception that employers have is that the school and the EDA accreditation is just for programmers.  We talk to executives that initially don't see the need for the training; "we just need more composition programmers".  What they don't realise is that in most cases they have enough programmers. Often their problem is that their Pre-sales, Business Analysts, QA Planners, Project Managers, and Operations launch managers don't know enough about the environment to provide clear specifications, test routines, and production requirements. Their programmers spend most of their time clarifying specifications, challenging user requirements, and reworking flawed testing processes.

In a properly trained shop, programmers spend virtually all of their time programming because Project Managers, Business Analysts, and QA planners understand the process and issues. There are also many eager people with classic IT certifications that can easily adapt to our environment after completing the school. Many of our clients have curbed hiring of professional staff by ensuring that the people they hire are properly trained.

“Brett, I approached The Document Institute because you have the local and global experience and IP I was looking for to expand our team’s knowledge. Your internationally recognised training was what we needed to meet our specialist needs. Because it’s not AMP’s core business, your expertise in the complete end-to-end document production workflow, significantly helped our team that is embedded within this complex specialist area. After completing only the initial 2 days, we saw better, more specific, and more confident communication between internal and external stakeholders, in areas such as colour and mailing, that previously would have been pushed to multiple meetings or been otherwise delayed.

“Because The Document Institute has saved us heaps of time since completing your initial training, we are now determining the next teams and individuals that should get exposure to understanding this complex workflow. I whole heartedly recommend The Document Institute to increase productivity and efficiency when creating your personalised customer communication. ”
