The Education and Training Division of AT&T has announced its second quarter, 1989 course schedule. Classes are given at various AT&T facilities around the United States during May and June. The courses all award CEU's (Continuing Education Units), and most are in multiple locations at various times over the next two months. Most range between 2-4 days in length, and while not inexpensive, I suspect they do offer very high caliber instruction in telecom related fields. The two day courses range in price from $500-800, and the four day courses typically are priced $1000-1300. A *free* one day course being offered is "Network Management", at numerous locations around the United States and Canada on April 21, including Toronto, Atlanta, Lexington MA, Southfield MI, Washington DC and Ft. Lauderdale. The same course will be given April 20 in Itasca IL (suburb of Chicago) and Birmingham AL. It will then be offered on May 9 in Tucson and Phoenix AZ, and San Fransisco. On May 10 it will be offered in Englewood and Colorado Springs CO; also in Boise, ID.
