9) Frequently Asked Questions about Technical Training:
Each month Scott Turton will answer one of the frequently asked
questions we receive about computer and IT training and career
development.
November 2002 FAQ: Is there any way I can get a free use of your
member site for a limited time?
Answer:
Yes, I will be sending out a special email message to all of our
newsletter subscribers sometime during the month of November
giving everyone free access to our member site via a special user
ID and password. This will be good for about 5 days, giving you
enough time to evaluate it and decide if it meets your needs.
