Normally, reading the documentation would be sufficient to start using Safeguard for both those who manage the solution and the end-users. However, in real life, I conducted some technical training sessions for Safeguard administrators and Safeguard end users. For end users, in most cases, a two to three-hour training session was enough to familiarize them with the management console. This console is used to request extensions to target systems and perform other related tasks. On the other hand, administrators usually required six to eight hours of training.

We conducted training sessions for all employees and managers in our company. The training was tailored to each person's skills in order to streamline the training process and facilitate the deployment procedures.

A moderate amount of training was required for our people to start using One Identity Safeguard.

While basic knowledge is important, there isn't much training required to start using the solution.

To start using One Identity Safeguard in terms of training for people who manage the solution and the end-users, my colleague and I took a course from One Identity. That training was enough for the basic features, but for some other features, my colleague and I had to create some tickets, though he and I know the database and processes. For users, it is easy because my company provides them with a two-page resource manual with screenshots. Then, I spent some time with the managers to show how One Identity Safeguard works, which is very easy because I've used the solution before.

People can start using the solution after five days of training.

End-users require just a couple of training sessions and some documentation, and they are ready to go. They can start using the tool as an end user in a week or less. Managers or administrators require a technical specialist training workshop, which is a full-week course. After that, they need one to three months of training with laboratories and documentation. They would need at least three months to work well with the platform.
