getting into Peoplesoft

[Guest_imported]

Is there a trial version of Peoplesoft I can download from their site?

Hi,

PeopleSoft does not have a trial version or single-user version at PeopleSoft 8. There are single-user versions for releases below PeopleSoft 8, but you only get the single-user version if you have already purchased the product for your company. Which really defeats the purpose for what what you are looking for.

PeopleSoft does allow "non-customers" to sign up for and take courses. If you want to do this, December is the best month, because PeopleSOft often reduces the cost of courses during this time. Unfortunately, I do not know if this is done for all students. I think there is a discount on courses going on right now.

Although you can take the courses, you will not have access to the software after the course ends. There is a web site for web-based training:

Some of the courses are free. Take the PeopleTools tutorials at

http://www.psknowledgecenter.com/go/free.htm.

I have also heard that some universities and colleges are teaching PeopleSoft classes, but I have never heard a particular college or university identified.

You can find more information about the product on

http://www.peoplesoft.com

web site. Some general technology information is located at

Althought the software is not available for download - about 7 CDs - and complex to configure, hopefully tis information helps a little.
