Northwest Training Opportunities

In the coming weeks there are some great training opportunities.

Netdesk, one of the Northwest's leading Microsoft technical training companies, is reviving their FIRST LOOK events. Your staff get a first look at new technologies from one of their top instructors at these free 3-hour presentations. These Netdesk events are free, but space is limited. You can RSVP by clicking on the REGISTER link for the event you want.

Also in November, join Netdesk for a FAB LAB on Hyper-V. In this free, 3-hour event, you choose the labs you want to try. You’ll be running Windows Server 2008 in a virtual lab environment configured with Hyper-V on Netdesk’s top of the line hardware (quad core with 8 GB RAM, 500 GB SATA2 hard drives, NVIDIA GPU, all running on Windows Server 2008 64-bit OS). You’ll see how Hyper-V reduces costs, increases hardware utilization, optimizes network infrastructure, and improves server availability.

In Oregon your Business Development Manager is Kate Chan (503-821-1809), in Washington contact Nick Lewis (206-224-7631).

I always like to mention when Mindsharp is holding classes in the Northwest, because they specialize in SharePoint training.

Mindsharp is hosting a public SharePoint Training event in Seattle on December 1-5; and offering the following sessions:

• 5-day MOSS Administrator
• 5-day WSS 3.0 Developer
• 5-day 2007 SharePoint Designer
• 3-day 2007 SharePoint Power User

Also, the next SharePoint Best Practices Conference planned which is taking place in San Diego, CA on February 2-4.
