Methodologies
This session can be held in a classroom or informal
one-on-one forum. In either case, attendee participation and
interaction is heartily encouraged. Training materials and
instruction will be provided to each attendee for review
during and following the training. All of the samples created
during the hands-on portion of the training will be made
