  WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY


"For anyone using Space Planning for multiple planograms or projects, I would highly recommend the Space Automation tool and class. The tool makes the job a great deal easier and more efficient, as it allows multiple planograms to be altered at the same time with very little effort. My time is reduced by more than 75%, which makes me more available for other projects. The class was a pleasure to be in, with one of the best instructors I have had. As the class is very interactive, I came out knowing how to work with the Space Automation tool and write my own programs. I would gladly sit through the class again!" - Doug Breland

  SPACE PLANNING

Retail space is a finite resource per selling location. When an item is placed on a retailer’s shelf or rack, an investment is being made, and a return is expected. The JDA Space Planning education program enables students to make optimal use of space based on consumer behavior and history at each retail location. To demonstrate progression in a user’s skills and competencies using Space Planning, JDA offers two levels of certification:

    bulletSpace Planner certification (Level 1) Functional User
    bulletSpace Planning Professional certification (Level 2) Advanced User

Space Planner certification (Level 1) - This certification is designed for the beginning user of Space Planning. It includes a two-hour e-learning module followed by a two-day instructor-led workshop and on-line exam. Students are introduced to or refreshed on basic merchandising concepts, learn how to use product and fixture libraries to develop planograms, and determine product placement while building planograms from scratch. Students learn to review underlying performance data using tables and charts.

Space Planning Professional certification (Level 2) - After achieving Space Planner certification and working with Space Planning for a while, your experience and knowledge can be applied toward Space Planning Professional certification. Training at this level includes advanced features of the Space Planning application and a deeper understanding of the reporting and analysis. This certification includes a four-hour e-learning module followed by a two-day instructor-led workshop and on-line exam.
