Year One Journey

Upon graduating from your onboarding and implementation, you’re entering a critical stage of Aspire education and adoption through the end of your first year. We recognize the learning curve can seem steep and overwhelming, so we're here to help you build daily, weekly, quarterly, and annual processes and behaviors to drive consistent results. One way we help is with our Year One Journey live trainings!

The Year One training topics are:

  • Mobile, Time Entry & Notes
  • Scheduling
  • Work Ticket Management
  • CRM
  • Invoicing
  • Accounts Receivable
  • Purchasing
  • Changes
  • Project Management
  • List Building & Reporting

Refer to the Year One Journey calendar linked below for complete details on each topic.

Before you sign up...

Keep these things in mind before you sign up for Year One classes:

  1. Each class is live and interactive, delivered by experts from our Customer Success team.

  2. We recommend taking one class per month so you have time to digest and integrate the material into your routine.

  3. You can prioritize the courses by your interest or area of need, but they are listed below in our recommended order of completion. 

  4. We suggest having at least one representative from your company attend each class—and be sure this person can teach the rest of your team the best practices they’ve learned. It will help solidify the lessons and provide a great leadership opportunity.
