Infor's CSI / Mongoose in the Classroom: A Professor and Student Perspective

摘要

Using industry products in the classroom are what makes a significant difference in student learning and preparation into the workforce. Students need skills sets that will differentiate them from other graduates when seeking employment. The partnership with Infor allows students at Farmingdale State College to use the ERP CSI and Visual solutions prevalent in industry in the classroom. This partnership allows for a synergy between Education and Industry/Business that has resulted in many students obtaining jobs. Infor and Farmingdale State College have a long-standing relationship from our use of their Visual ERP tool through their premier solution provider Synergy Resources to their new EAP program with CSI. The negotiated endowment for the CSI offering has been in the classroom successfully for a year now while the Visual tool has been in our class for more than nine years. Winning awards and accolades from companies who hire our students. Only through these very important Academic and Industry partnerships can we mutually succeed. These tools used in Dr. O'Sullivan's ERP classes at Farmingdale State College is where Brandon Barroca is the dedicated CSI Intern.
