Niche communities focus on specialized training for Oracle users with similar backgrounds, interests, locations
ATLANTA–The Oracle Applications Users Group (OAUG), an independent, global, member-led organization that maximizes customers’ investment in Oracle and partner solutions, established three new geographic groups (Geos) and one new special interest group (SIG) in response to member interest and needs.
“The creation of these new Geos and SIG illustrates the OAUG’s unwavering commitment to serving its members’ specialized needs and connecting them to like-minded experts who share their passion and can offer valuable insight that relates specifically to their interests and careers”
Two Canadian Geos, the Alberta Canada OAUG and the British Columbia Canada OAUG, joined the roster this year. The Alberta Canada OAUG primarily serves Oracle Applications users in Calgary and Edmonton, but the group’s membership is open to all users residing or working in Alberta. Users interested in joining may visit the website at albertaoaug.communities.oaug.org for more information. The British Columbia Canada OAUG serves Oracle Applications users in both the Vancouver and British Columbia areas. Users interested in joining this group may visit the website at bccoaug.communities.oaug.org.
The OAUG also added a Geo for Arizona and New Mexico Oracle Applications users called the Arizona-New Mexico OAUG. This group is based primarily out of Albuquerque and Phoenix, making it convenient for Oracle Applications users in this area to attend events. For those interested in joining, more information can be found on its website at aznmoaug.communities.oaug.org.
The newest OAUG SIG is the Oracle Revenue Management and Billing (RMB) Application and Analytics SIG (also known as the ORMB SIG). The SIG enables Oracle RMB and RMB Analytics users, subject matter experts, system integrators, business development and influencers located across geographies to come together and share a common platform to exchange ideas and learn from others within the RMB community. While the SIG currently focuses on revenue management and billing for banking, insurance and capital markets, the scope may evolve over time considering the various product interests of the RMB user community. For more information on joining the RMB SIG, please visit the website atrmbasig.communities.oaug.org.
“The creation of these new Geos and SIG illustrates the OAUG’s unwavering commitment to serving its members’ specialized needs and connecting them to like-minded experts who share their passion and can offer valuable insight that relates specifically to their interests and careers,” said Dr. Patricia Dues, president of the OAUG.
