ESC|University November Training Courses

ESC|University invites you to attend one of our many beneficial training courses offered in November. Designed with your needs and feedback in mind, ESCU classes and workshops provide invaluable knowledge to all who attend. Because the Fall 2009 User Group is in November, the majority of these classes will be offered in San Antonio, TX in the days surrounding User Group. Don't forget that you will receive one complimentary training course of your choosing during the month of January 2010 when you book any three courses offered in the days surrounding User Group!

However, for those of you who are unable to attend User Group, we are also offering several webinars and a CEMS New User with ESC|StackVision Class at the end of the month in Knoxville, TN. There are several new additions to the 2009 training offering so don't miss out on these opportunities!
