Part 1: 14th & 15th

Part 2: 16th & 17th

We will only be spending 4-6 hours online. This may vary but is primarily an attempt to be realistic about trying to focus at a computer screen all day.

Instructor: Richard Amerman

Richard has been involved in training and speaking for most of his life. He was originally on course towards an eduction degree but, as happens to many of us, was waylaid by technology. He has spent time as a Hang Gliding instructor, taught first aid, and CPR as well as various music related topics. In the past 12 years he has spoken and taught on technology topics throughout the Northwest. He now focuses on Plone and Asterisk. He spoke at the first Plone conference, helped organized the pre-conference trainings at the 2006 conference and has been presenting on Plone for the last 5 years.
