AOC is in the process of starting a project to move our desktop software development from WinForms to WPF. WPF is the latest technology for developing desktop applications and will be replacing WinForms over the next couple of years. This week at the Microsoft VSLive conference, I met one of the industry leaders in WPF programming and training. His name is Bill Hollies. Bill provided several training sessions on WPF at VSLive. I talked to Bill about coming to Oregon and providing a 5 day training session on WPF. Based up Bill's pricing structure, if we could get 10 - 15 people to sign up for the training sessions we get Bill in Oregon for a 5 day training session for about $1600 - $1800 a person. Therefore, I am trying to see how many organizations are interested in WPF training and how many of your programmers you would be interested in sending to a 5 day training session on WPF for $1600 - $1800. If we can get enough people to commit, AOC will put together this training session. So, if you are interested, please reply to this email and provide me with the number of programmers you would like to have attend this training session.
