For more than 7 years we have maintained master data for large companies, and we built our training from that work. It is not a retelling of theory: every course is made of the tasks and questions our clients raise on our projects. Take it online at your own pace, or work through it with our experts on your own data.
Synopps Academy is the training practice of Synopps, a master data management integrator. Our programmes come from our master data cleansing and MDM implementation projects. There are two ways to learn: take the online course at your own pace, or go through the same programme with our experts on your company's data.

Two ways to learn
At your own pace
Online, self-paced
An online course you take at your own pace: introductory presentations with voice-over, short sections, exercises with feedback on every answer and a test in each module. Your progress is saved, and at the end there is a final test and a certificate.
We go through the same programme on your company's data. Synopps trainers run the sessions, review assignments and answer your team's questions. The programme is set up for your catalogue and your systems.
08Economics of a master data team: effect, cost of ownership, business case
This is the programme of the Master Data Management course. The specialist's work with requests has its own course, Master Data Specialist. Expert-led formats are built from the same topics for each company's task.
With experts
Expert-led formats
01
Two-day intensive
A fast format for teams that need to understand the basics of master data and MDM, cleansing and how to launch a project.
02
Role-based training
Separate tracks for master data specialists, IT architects, business analysts, procurement, logistics and project managers.
We prepare guidance, instructions, templates and training modules for internal use.
Any format can be fitted to your company. Sessions are run by experts who have delivered master data projects themselves.
Approach
Why our training works
01
From practice, not from a textbook
Everything in the programme comes from cleansing and MDM projects we ran ourselves: client questions, difficult cases, SOPs.
02
Exercises on real data, not made-up examples
Participants work with real descriptions, duplicates and requests, not invented lines from a manual.
03
Taught by people who have done it
Our trainers are our own master data experts, not guest lecturers.
Participants
Who it is for
Heads and specialists of master data teams, analysts, IT architects, procurement and logistics staff, implementation project managers. And companies that have no master data team yet but already have a large catalogue.
Questions
Questions and answers
How is the online course different from sessions with experts
You take the online course on your own, at your own pace. Sessions with experts follow the same programme, but on your company's data and with live review of assignments.
What document does a participant receive
A Synopps certificate of completion with a number that can be verified. It is not a formal education document.
How long does the online course take
The Master Data Management course has eight modules of about an hour each, about 9 hours in total, plus an optional workshop. You can take it in parts during 12 months of access, and your progress is saved.
Can we pay by company invoice
Yes, this is the main way. You send a request with your company details, we issue an invoice, and we open access after payment.
How many people does one payment cover
One payment is one seat. Teams can buy packages of five or ten seats, and we quote larger groups separately.
Can the programme be adapted to our industry
Yes. In the expert-led format the programme is built around your catalogue, your systems and your industry.
