As the Katapult Pro platform grows to support more comprehensive features and a wider user base, it’s essential for our team to be able to support scalable onboarding and provide teams with an assurance of their proficiency in the platform. We’re thrilled to start rolling out a new training framework and accompanying certification program to support our growing teams.


This program is designed to:

  • help users gain a thorough understanding of the functionalities of Katapult Pro

  • support users with documentation and reference materials


What does training look like?


There are a few different methods of training available for your teams:

  • In-person training bootcamps

  • Guided virtual training with a Katapult expert

  • Self-serve training widget available to all users


In-Person Training


Our OSP Field Bootcamp is an intensive three-day training program designed for data collection with Katapult Pro. Hosted here in Dillsburg, PA, your teams will learn techniques that improve safety practices, increase quality of data, and maximize efficiency in the field. The program begins and ends with a skills assessment and training is done almost entirely in the field.


The OSP Office Apprenticeship is a three-week curriculum built for the back office workflow. Your team will process data in the office and learn photo classification and node prep, data extraction, make ready calls, and how to run pole loading analysis. The first week is spent in person at our Dillsburg office running training data through the workflow. Weeks 2 and 3 are a series of virtual calls to provide training and feedback on your real applications.


The corresponding certifications are included for participants in the bootcamp and apprenticeship trainings.


Guided Training


Guided training, conducted virtually, can be comprehensive or tailored to cover specific functionalities of Katapult Pro. These are typically 1-hour sessions but can be scheduled longer if needed. Each session will be recorded and shared with you and can be attended by everyone on your team.


Guided training costs $180 per hour.


Self-Paced Training Widget


Self-serve training has 5 units:

  • Project Management - details on power tools and organizational automation to simplify team and project management.

  • Data Collection - focuses on the equipment, field collection workflow, and other details field techs and managers must know to be successful.

  • Data Processing - discusses how to process collected data in Katapult Pro, including photo calibration, association, measurement, and tracing.

  • Analysis - outlines how to use make ready and pole loading tools to make great engineering decisions.

  • Delivery - reviews export and deliverable options for Katapult Pro datasets.


The widget contains videos and manuals that can be accessed by any Katapult Pro user at no cost.

Certification


Certification is an opportunity to evaluate what you know and identify potential growth areas in order to maximize your experience with Katapult Pro. Users who pass the assessments with 100% accuracy will receive a certificate and their company will qualify for the Katapult Pro Vendor List.
