  • It’s Consumable Chunks of video interviews / screencasts / interviews talking about current and upcoming technologies that can MAKE A DIFFERENCE in your career and skillset.  
  • It’s backed up with Bragging Rights / points. Impress your friends / family / colleagues.
  • Plus, the first 500 people to sign up get a free MVA t-shirt.

TO sweeten the pot even FURTHER – We’ve put together an incentive / contest for a Sweet looking “Tech-Tastic” Prize Pack. (OK – the marketing guys came up with that name – I didn’t Smile
