  Training Pricing

As of 1st September 2002, Human Edge will have standardised training prices across the board. We now have set half-day and full day training rates that apply to all our software packages, and a new multi-booking discount structure that means the more sessions you book at one time the cheaper it becomes. Each additional booking made at the same time receives an additional 10% off the full training price. This means:

1st booking Full Price
2nd booking 10% off Full Price
3rd booking 20% off Full Price
4th booking 30% off Full Price

If you book 10 sessions at once, you or someone from your school can attend an 11th session FREE!

  How Do I?

How do I put an accent on someone’s name?

Examples of some accents are:

à á â ã ä å

To put an accent onto a letter in someone's name you need to either know the appropriate keystrokes for that character map, or how to copy and paste the accented character.

To begin the process you need to be in Microsoft Windows and:

Go to START>PROGRAMS>ACCESSORIES>SYSTEM TOOLS>CHARACTER MAP
In the Character Map screen select ARIAL as your font as it makes the accents easier to see on screen

If you are using keystrokes:

Click on the character and accent that you require
On the bottom right corner of the form is an area called KEYSTROKE. This area will give you the details of the keystrokes you need to enter to get the highlighted accented character.
In SAS2000 call up the record for the person that has a name with an accent
Highlight the letter that needs an accent and enter the appropriate keystrokes.

For example:
á has the keystroke: Alt + 0225. This means you hold down the ALT key while keying in the number 0225

To Copy and Paste:

Click on the character and accent that you require
Click on the SELECT button to put the character into the "Characters to copy:" field
Click on the COPY button
In SAS2000 call up the record for the person that has a name with an accent
Highlight the letter that needs an accent
Hold down the ALT key on your keyboard and press the V key to paste the character into the name

Note: Accents should not be used in Pay2k. The file that is sent to the ATO for the Payment Summaries does not accept these characters.
