...(Matthews, 2013). It would be important to find a vendor who can design a customized training program based on the individual needs of the organization. There should be plenty of time for proper training and it should not be rushed, this will cause more confusion and reluctance to learn the program. It would also be valuable to find a vendor that will deliver the initial training program but also have an ongoing training schedule when new upgrades are released. An area to take into account would also be training new-hires to the system. NextGen Healthcare offers classroom and web-based instruction to provide training for the NextGen Ambulatory EHR software (NextGen Healthcare, 2013). NextGen’s website states “Our multiple training options support different schedules and needs. Physicians and staff can attend courses at one of our four state-of-the-art facilities, take self-paced online eLearning, and train virtually by WebEx.” Paragon is an EHR system from McKesson and provides training via on-site, webinars, self-study guides, and web-based training (McKesson, 2013). They also provide product readiness assessments and training plans prior to implementation. McKesson (2013), states that...

...Running head: BASICS OF COMPUTER ONLINE TECH SUPPORT The Basics of Online Tech Support Steven T. Craig TUI University ITM 501 The Basics Of Online Tech Support In this paper I will share my experiences of On-Line Tech Support and the adventures of getting problems solved through the use of the Internet. First, I selected the main purpose for my search of on-line tech support. Since I was having problems with my computer with its daily operations, I felt that there was nowhere to turn but to reboot the computer and start from scratch. However, I was not to keen on the idea of erasing all my data and starting over and thought that perhaps there was another way to fix my issues. I used the on-line tech support web site www.Help.com. After searching the Internet for an interesting or catchy home page of Internet tech support, I stumbled upon help.com. I read the intro page and look under some of the discussions and decided to enter the domain and ask my help question. Which was, “ how do you erase your computers data and start all over?” After being prompted to sign up for the account and agreeing to the user agreement options. I started off by reading previous post, for ideas of answers and posted dialogue that was being shared. Unfortunately my question was not asked previous and I had to venture out on my own to request the answer. This website and the postings at this website where...

...William Kollie IS3120: Convergence of IP Based Network MR. McMiller July 20 2014 The dial up connection is made from a computer through modem and telephone line to the ISP's computer. The computer uses data in digital form. It means that it the computer can transmit data in 1's and 0's on and off also called digital or binary form. On other hand, telephone lines transmit data in analog form. It means that they transmit data by sound. the telephone line from your house is joined to a special terminal that sends the data received from their computers in form of audio signals from to enter the Public Switched Telephone Network PSTN. From PSTN, it is routed to the person or ISP that the modem is calling through the internet. Dial-up connection face connectivity problem which the user has to deal with. Dial up connection is unstable, dialup demand phone line connection which block incoming calls access, the chief disadvantage of dialup Internet, as compared with broadband Internet, is its slowness. Access to modern broadband networks is essential in the information age, said FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler. Yet 15 million Americans live in areas where they can’t get wireline broadband no matter how much they want it. These funds will jump-start broadband access in areas that would otherwise be bypassed by the digital economy. At least 100 million U.S. homes should have affordable access to actual download speeds of at least 100 megabits per second and actual upload speeds...

...Trident University Module 1 SLP ITM424: Introduction to Software Use and Tech. Support Dr. Ying Liu For this assignment I chose to talk about the Adobe Systems Portable Document Format or PDF, the standard for printable documents on the web. Invented by Adobe Systems the Portable Document Format (PDF) is the standard for capturing and reviewing information from almost any application on any computer system and sharing it with almost anyone, anywhere. First released in 1993 the PDF format was not an immediate success, but Adobe’s decision to distribute the Acrobat Reader software for free, in my opinion, was instrumental in the PDF formats’ success. Motivated by the hope of a paperless office, the PDF format started as a pet project of Adobe founder John Warnock. PDF started as an internal project at Adobe that would allow a file to be shared throughout the company and be used on any operating system. In his paper which led to the development of PDF, John Warnock wrote: ‘Imagine being able to send full text and graphics documents (newspapers, magazine articles, technical manuals etc.) over electronic mail distribution networks. These documents could be viewed on any machine and any selected document could be printed locally. This capability would truly change the way information is managed.’ His vision of an application that would allow a corporation effectively capture documents from any application, and send them electronically anywhere, to view and print these...

...in a small home market. A high degree of specialization requires internationalization if the firm wants to achieve substantial growth. Born Global firms often possess unique resources and capabilities such as entrepreneurial orientation of the founders, innovation behind products and technology, accumulated knowledge of the founders and managers from previous work experience, and networking capabilities. Managers with a previous background of international strong activity will give to the company a more sure address to its business expansion, for this reason a high level of entrepreneurial orientation supports the firm´s ability to recognize and create opportunities at an early stage. It can be argued that Born Global firms are typically found in niche business areas where products are unique, and require high amount of research and development like the high tech business area. It is very important to invest in products with a short life cycle and high technology sectors are characterized by this necessity of a continued innovation which can protect those firms and products from any imitation. As for geographic locations of these Born Global firms, their headquarters can be found in various countries, such as the United States, United Kingdom, Switzerland… Rich and large countries give birth to Born...

...advantages in labor quality, labor supply and time zone would give them a leg up on their competition, even though both India and China have lower labor cost. By exploiting these advantages, they were able to grow at a rapid pace. By 2009, Globant had over 1500 employees and was generating three million dollars per month in revenue. Despite their success, Globant found themselves at a crossroads. For four years the founders pursued clients that needed IT expertise in anything under the broad spectrum of IT services. However, the management team recognized that Globant needed to target specific industries to remain competitive in the market. The team therefore, narrowed their scope to four very distinct market segments for further analysis: high-tech, telecom, travel and financial services industries. Globant recognized that their diversified client portfolio was spreading resources too thin, and top clients began choosing IT service partners that focused on a specific industry where they could demonstrate a deep and wide understanding of a particular sector of the market. In order to avoid becoming a marginalized player in the...

...The transition from a Socialist approach to a free market approach and the rise of a new high-tech sector are two remarkable shifts that have occurred in the last two decades in Israel. In the face of these changes, human resource (HR) practitioners are currently expected to assume new roles, adopt different work values, and apply appropriate strategies. HR managers in the low-tech industry still adhere to traditional values and strategies, including a reliance on trade unions and an emphasis on job security and the employees’ years of work experience and seniority as key criteria for promotion. In the emerging high-tech sector, HR managers have adopted new values and developed new strategies, including human resource management programs, employee empowerment, higher salaries and better benefits, while placing an emphasis on employees’ talents and qualifications.

...without the support of her abusive husband. In the opening of the movie she moves her children and herself back to her hometown. Living with her parents, who are not supportive of her actions, she wants to be able to support her children. Her hometown is a mining town, where we find they have begun to employee woman. However, we find that most, of the mostly male workforce, is not totally accepting of their female counterparts. This mindset is supported by from the top all the way down – this attitude is even supported by Josey’s own father. The men of the plant go beyond simply just showing their dislike for women in their workplace and torture the women of the mine but verbally and physically. Josey’s sexually activities are put in question throughout the movie. She attempts to seek help from her manager to the owner of the company who begin to blame her for her activity. Josey attempts to gain the support of her fellow female co-worker and get the men to understand that they are there for the opportunity to do the job, too. But she finds herself alone and begins to take action on her own.

...Minnesota State Arts Board, which is a state agency that simulates and encourages the creation, performance, and appreciation of arts in the state. We also have Partners in Arts Participation, which is a pilot grant program designed to broaden opportunities for Minnesotans to participate in the arts. Another program we have is called K-12 Arts Challenge Minnesota Grant, which is a noncompetitive grant program and funds are given out first come first serve. I do feel that we have enough support in Minnesota. The programs I named were just a few of the many programs we have to support art in the cities. I do however think people here need to be more supportive of children in arts. It is important to get them started at a young age and many people do not feel that art is important. I think it helps to expand a child’s way of thinking and it helps them to excel in other areas, because they know if something doesn’t work one way it’s time to take a new approach. My role in the creation and support of art in my community is very small and could get better. I do however start with my son, just like my parents did as well as my in-laws, at a very young age. I like to take him to the different places and help him to explore many of the opportunities we have in the state. It is important to me that I give him all the opportunities that I possibly can and let him experience art and life they way he should,...
