As an employer, you are faced with a choice: do you completely screen off your employees' equipment or give them the freedom to install software themselves. In the latter case, it is of the utmost importance that the employee is aware of the costs and risks that this entails for his employer. In2SAM has developed a unique training that enables every organization to easily limit the risks and costs of software and licenses.
Every employee who plays a role in implementing or executing SAM processes needs sufficient knowledge for this. The SAM Foundations course provides all these employees with the necessary basic knowledge. The SAM Advanced course (availabale in Febrbuary 2022) goes a step further. This provides SAM specialists with tools to get the most out of their processes.
In addition to the broad subject-oriented training, we offer the Audit Monitor training. To successfully counter an attack from a software manufacturer, every employee who has to do with software audits should follow this training.
We have developed the ISO 19770 Basic Training for companies that want to orientate themselves on ISO certification in the ITAM or SAM area.

Promisses SAP spokes persons and account managers were very quick to mention to the world that, now they won the Diageo court case, they wouldn’t directly start harvesting the new situation on indirect access. And in effect that’s a bit true. They now seem to aim at the big treasure chests that are out there. […]
Eye opener I was at a NextSales meeting with a company that has a solution for anonymizing and pseudonymizing data. Risky data it is. And I must say I was happy to be there. As it turns out they have a solid solution for one of the biggest problems in the IT&SAM field: anonymization of […]
ISO19770 As more and more organizations are working with SAM solutions, the question is how to keep up the quality level as high as achieved at the end of the SAM implementation project. And this is a valid question. I see that at the end of these projects organizations lean back, and sigh in relief […]
