# Do I need training to use the hardware and software?

Machine Sentry® training is not a necessity to start using the software and hardware.

We do however strongly recommend the attendance of our two day Machine Sentry training courses available throughout the year via public courses, onsite courses or online. This enables teams to hit the ground running and get the most out of their condition based monitoring program and the Machine Sentry platform.

Additional Reliability, Maintenance and Asset Management courses are available from our team. You can book and view courses directly on our website here-[Training booking and dates](https://www.avtreliability.com/training) 

The training brochure can also be found here- [2021 Training brochure](https://hubs.ly/H0DB9GH0)
