Training built for your staff, not for a webinar audience.
I've developed curricula and individual courses for synagogue software and financial systems. Every engagement starts with what your people already know, which is rarely what the software vendor assumes.
Training isn't just about pushing the right buttons in the right order. It's about knowing when to push them — and understanding the cross-functional nature of synagogue work well enough to get the most out of the platform, not just operate it.
Remote
Lower cost to start, and easier for staff to absorb in manageable pieces rather than one exhausting day. Sessions can be recorded so new hires aren't starting from zero.
On-site
The right choice when staff need to get up to speed quickly or one person needs depth. One-on-one instruction, over-the-shoulder coaching against a list of questions you send ahead, or classroom style — and everyone ends with the same baseline.
New staff onboarding
Turnover in synagogue offices is the quiet destroyer of a good implementation. Training your next bookkeeper or administrator on how your system is set up, not just what the buttons do.
When the person who knew the system leaves
A new bookkeeper, treasurer, executive director, or office manager inherits the system without the history behind it. Training starts from your data, not from a generic demo, and ends with each person knowing which tasks are theirs and which aren't.
"My staff has used Congregation Consulting for ShulCloud technical support, training, and module upgrades for over six years. Joseph is knowledgeable, responsive, and patient. They are always able to guide us even when we do not know how to ask the question. I strongly recommend this company for anyone who uses ShulCloud. Thank you Congregation Consulting!"

"I have worked with Joseph Greenberg of Congregation Consulting for more than eight years, since I first began using ShulCloud. His deep knowledge of the system and exceptional training skills make ShulCloud easy and accessible for users at every level. Joseph has been such a valuable resource that when I moved to a new synagogue, I took him with me!"

We'll work out whether it's a few remote sessions or some time on site.
