I discovered that many of my very busy colleagues are having an
extremely difficult time pulling themselves away to take vital
training when it requires being away for consecutive days. I just
completed training for .NET in Chicago through a mentored learning
program that personally helped me to tackle that same issue. Though
the mentored learning training allows complete interaction with
classroom version labs and interaction with an on staff expert on the
topic, it does require some discipline in that I was responsible for
the pace I was moving. The benefit for me is that I did not have to
commit myself to a set schedule of consecutive days being
inaccessible. I had the flexibility to engage in the mentored
learning program once a week until I completed the course. Plus the
mentored learning lab was very comfortable and for some of my
colleagues who would are able to travel, it is near O'Hare Airport and
there is a hotel next door.
Once I get more help in our data center, I do plan on spending some
time, and some of our firm's money on some instructor-led classes that
will require me to be away for consecutive days and I can get done a
lot quicker. This particular training centers line-up of classes and
its personnel impressed me. I thought I would alert the rest of you
to this attractive alternative and would be happy to provide you the
details on a need to know basis either through this discussion group
or you can send me an email to Robert@vcmnetwork.com.
