Technology Training

There are currently two to three days of technology training sessions, held at one of Microsoft's local facilities (Waltham, MA) each week.  Key points about this training include:

  • Session costs are $10/Hour per Participant, or $40 for a 4 hour session.
  • All sessions are taught by a Microsoft Certified Trainer or Microsoft Office Specialist Master Instructor
  • Sessions may vary in length, depending on product complexity and training level (basic or more advanced).  Current sessions have been standardized on a 4 hour session model. (from a previous 2 1/2 hour session for some classes).
  • Sessions now include a "lab" section, intended to help participants immediately apply what they've learned during the session to projects of practical immediate value to them.
  • Participants may bring their own laptop with the software already loaded and a limited number of laptops are available for use by participants who do not have their own.
  • Certificates of session attendance are provided, along with opportunities for application of session information in the building of a Personal Electronic Portfolio (PEP).
