This month, our blog post will take a slightly different tone than our normal publications due to the current Covid-19 pandemic and its paralyzing effect on many areas of public life.
This said, we at Scalefree are reflecting on the ways we can do our part to help contain the virus. Thus, the health of Scalefree’s customers, partners, employees, and the overall community is our highest priority. We do not want to subject any person to undue risk, and certainly those around us, who could be more seriously affected by the virus.
Due to this growing concern regarding the coronavirus (COVID-19), as well as in alignment with the best practices in addition to restrictions from local authorities, we have chosen to make our training programs fully available as live and interactive online classes.
Therefore, we would like to give you an overview of what changes Scalefree is making to help stem the spread of Covid-19 while at the same time delivering actionable insights to our partners, customers and employees.
1. Data Vault 2.0 ONLINE Boot Camp
We have created a schedule for online Data Vault 2.0 Boot Camps which are to be held live with Michael Olschimke. To provide as close a training experience to an on-site training as possible these classes will be interactive, giving you the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers live.
To prevent technical issues, recorded video from these Boot Camps will be available online to all participants for one week.

3. WWDVC US and WWDVC EU
The WWDVC US has been postponed to 31/08/2020 through 03/09/2020 as to not endanger the health of participants and therefore will take place directly before the WWDVC EU held on 07/09/2020-11/09/2020.
Please note that the WWDVC US was planned to take place in May and has been postponed to the autumn as a precaution.
No changes are planned for the WWDVC EU.
4. Scalefree Events planned for March have been postponed
In order to help protect the health of our customers, partners and employees, in addition to restrictions as well as recommendations from local authorities, we have postponed the Data Vault 2.0 Knowledge and Best Practices for the Production Industry event, the Data Vault 2.0 Knowledge and Best Practices for Retail and Logistics event, as well as the Wherescape Test Drive in Dortmund. Please note that the events have been postponed indefinitely.
