best practices and “helpful hints” are applicable for
versions 3.4, 3.5 and 4.0.
Is this a hands-on training?
Yes, included in the participation cost is a training manual, and
laptop with latest install of Intelligent Authoring. The teachers
of the training will have hands-on samples, and problem solving

What is the benefit of attending the training and the user group?
The two events will be very different. The training will focus on
technical aspects of using the software and best practices, while the
User Group is focused on Regulatory issues. There will be no
hands-on product sessions at the User Group. There is a rebated
registration cost if you attend both events.
