Newsdesk was designed to be intuitive and easy-to-learn, but sometimes we need a bit of guidance. Maybe you’re new to your company or missed an initial round of training. Whatever the reason, if you’re interested in training, contact Client Services. We have some suggested topics to get you going:
- General overview
- Creating searches
- Analytics
- Redistribution of content (XML feeds, email alerts, and newsletters)
We are continually adding new features and improving existing ones, so even if you’re an old pro, there may be a thing or two yet to learn.
Representatives are available from 8:30am GMT – 1:00am GMT (3:30am EST – 8:00pm EST), so we can accommodate a wide variety of schedules and time zones.
See our Newsdesk training page for more information.
