Brought to you by iLearnERP In this episode, hosts Chandra and Paul look back over their first year of “The JDE Connection” podcast. What a ride it’s been—43 episodes filled with laughs, learning, and yes, a healthy dose of Midwestern humor! When they hit record for the first time back in January, they had no idea what this podcast would grow into. Nervous and over-prepared, they re-recorded the first few episodes more times than they care to count. But as the year unfolded, they found our groove, sharing not just insights about JD Edwards but also a few laughs and some lighthearted banter along the way. From educational episodes to live recordings at BLUEPRINT4D and INFOCUS, to their first YouTube and LinkedIn live session they’ve cherished the connections they’ve built. None of this would be possible without you, the listeners. Your feedback, questions, and enthusiasm keep them inspired and for that they extend their heartfelt gratitude.
