Productivity Enthusiasts,

After announcing our "live" Microsoft Outlook training in Denver, we received many pleas from people who DON'T live in Colorado, requesting that that we create a virtual training option that you could attend from your location. WE HEARD YOU! Announcing The Productivity Pro® Microsoft Outlook virtual training series! Attend "live" training with Laura Stack, a Microsoft Certified Specialist in Outlook, from the privacy of your home or office.

I'm going to present ten modules covering various aspects of Outlook step-by-step. This isn't just computer training. It's real-world, reality-based workflow processing that helps you actually be MORE productive with Outlook, instead of wasting hours every day playing with it. I estimate most people know 10-20% of the capacities of Outlook. Even if you think you're an "expert," you'll be shocked by what you don't know you don't know.

I'm making each one-hour webinar very affordable at $39 per person. If you attend all ten, the price is discounted to $349 per person. If for some reason you miss the class, don't worry. The recording will be available for two weeks after the session, and each person will receive a detailed PDF workbook to accompany each webinar, with detailed screen shots, so you can duplicate what I do in the seminar.

NOTE: This is a one-person license, so you can't have someone watch over your shoulder or forward the URL to others. If you want to project the seminar in your conference room, just call us at 303-471-7401 and tell us how many people are attending, and we'll manually charge your credit card $39 per person. We use the honor system--only you will know if you cheat.

There is nothing to download. As long as you have access to the Internet and sound from your speakers, you can attend. You don't dial in via phone, as this platform features VOIP (voice over internet protocol), and you listen right from your own computer. I DO recommend you purchase an inexpensive USB headset (such as the Logitech ClearChat Comfort for around $40) that plugs right into your USB and offers great sound quality and privacy from your office neighbors.

TIMES I will offer different sessions for 2003 and 2007 users, so make sure to sign up for the right seminar. The 2003 series will be held at 11:00 Pacific/12:00 Mountain/1:00 Central/2:00 eastern. The 2007 series will be held at 1:00 pacific/2:00 mountain/3:00 central/4:00 eastern.
