Best Practical Solutions provides unparalleled instruction in how to
get the most out of RT. We've been teaching users and administrators
how to get the most out of RT since 2001. Since 2003, we've offered
intensive one-day RT administrator training sessions to the general
public.
In response to your requests, we've extended our RT training program
to cover additional material targeted at beginning to advanced RT
users. We've split training across two days. The first day starts
off with a tour of RT's web interface and continues with a detailed
exploration and explanation of RT's functionality, workflows and
configurability. We'll touch on basic administration, but concentrate
largely on helping you and your team get the most out of your RT
instance.
The second day of training picks up with basic RT administration and
covers everything from point-and-click configuration to installation
of RT, development best practices and database tuning.
It goes without saying that you'll get the most out of training if you
attend both days of the course, but we've designed the material so
that you can step out after the first day with a dramatically improved
understanding of how to use RT or show up on the second day and get
quickly up to speed on how to make RT do your bidding.
A spot at either day costs $995 USD. You can save 25% if you attend
both days of training. That's just $1495.
If you reserve your seat before March 15th, you can save an additional
20% by mentioning the discount code ANNOUNCE09.
Each class includes breakfast, coffee/tea, and an afternoon snack, as
well as all training materials.

Day 2 - RT Administration and Development – April 28th 2008

fast, reliable and flexible.
