Before you attend
Because of the amount of material we cover in class, we do require students to be comfortable using a mouse, opening and saving files, and with the general operations of computers. While we will make every reasonable effort to help, students with insufficient skills may be required to observe the class lessons or do their best to keep up without slowing down the rest of the class. We highly recommend working with the application tutorial before attending this course.
Run this for a team
Private cohorts run on your dates, at your site or online, with the labs pointed at your environment. Above about four people it usually costs less than buying seats.
