IBM Tivoli Training at User Group Meetings
The Tivoli Access Manager South New England User Group and the Northwest Ohio TSM User's Group had free training direct from Tivoli Education at their last meetings and YOU CAN TOO.
In the April and October 2006 surveys of the Tivoli User Group community, we asked you... "What is the best way for IBM to reward you for being a good IBM customer?" Almost 50% of those who responded selected "Free Education Classes" as the best reward.
So, in 2007, Tivoli Training is offering free, in-depth technical training delivered by technical product experts via emeeting at regularly scheduled Tivoli User Group meetings. And you and your User Group Leader select the product and topics to be taught at your meeting from a list of over 225 courses covering over 80 Tivoli products.
The process to hold a free, technical Tivoli Training class at your next meeting has been explained to your User Group Leaders during the January world wide Leaders meetings. The Leaders have the list of courses to select from.
What do you need to do to make this happen? Contact your User Group Leader and work with him/her and the other members of your User Group to select the product, course and topics you want taught at your next User Group meeting.
