Microsoft Project 2010 Ignite Training in Phoenix Sep. 13 & 14, last call!

As a free benefit of attending the Microsoft Project Conference in Phoenix, September 14-17, you can attend this free training opportunity: Project 2010 Ignite. If interested please register rapidly since space is limited and we are almost at capacity!

The goal for the Project 2010 Ignite Program is to prepare EPM professionals for deployment, operations and customization of Project Server 2010.

The Ignite curriculum is targeted at EPM consultants, IT Professionals, Admin Professionals and developers that have experience deploying, operating and customizing Project Server 2007; content will be technical and will range from 300 to 400 level (Experienced to Advanced/Expert); this training is NOT for end users nor EPM sales professionals. With this in mind, the Ignite content will not be designed to cover all Project Server functionality, only the new functionality of Project Server 2010 (in other words, just the deltas compared to 2007) will be presented. The Project 2010 Ignite training in Phoenix will be delivered by the following Microsoft experts: Chris Boyd, Michael Jordan, Jan Kalis, Jean-Francois Lesaux, Brian Smith, and myself.
