[comp.dcom.telecom] "Hands On" Seminars, 1989

telecom@bu-cs.BU.EDU (TELECOM Moderator) (01/02/89)

The American Institute, of Madison, NJ has announced the calendar of seminars
and training sessions for telecommunications related subjects for 1989. While
their programs seem to generally be good and very informative/educational,
they are not inexpensive. Typically the rates for the three day seminars range
from $900-$1300, not including your hotel room, etc.

The DataComm Group is a division of American Institute, and for many years it
has had an excellent reputation for its educational programs on technical
subjects. Of the four people I've known who attended these seminars in the
past, three praised them, while one was only mildly enthusiastic. You can get
more information, and/or register by calling or writing the American Institute,
