Additional Training
We understand there may be some local governments that require personal training and support. Just some of the reasons:
- Can't wait for a training workshop in October, need immediate help
- Unable to attend one of the training workshops in September
- Training workshop did not cover in detail one or more topics that are of immediate importance
- Assumed debt setoff responsibilities without any or adequate training and/or training materials
Just call us at (866) 265-1668 and set up an appointment where we can discuss how we can help. We may even be able to provide assistance at that time. Some examples of our support, all of which is at NO cost:
- Conference call
- with the Clearinghouse staff, you and any additional staff, including I.T. and/or vendor/third-party administrator
- we can also conference in one additional phone number for even additional participants
- Via Remote Computer support, we can connect to your computer to train on our software regarding:
- enter debtors, debts, run reports, generate notification letters
- import files, such as Excel files from other departments or even vendors/third-party administrators
- import setoff file once funds have been recovered
- to understand the reports and files we provide, such as the surplus.xlsx (possible refunds)
- to transmit a secure file to us
