Class A Success

Got through the classes yesterday. The feedback was positive. As usual there were some lessons learned.

  • One of the boxes on the Word Export Settings Dialog allows you to generate and embed a table of contents. This would be useful for larger multi-page documents.
  • Your throat gets sore after 5 of the 7 hours. I learned that in Detroit and forgot. Next time I'll bring some hard candy with me.
  • Always make sure the IT Tech is available at the start-up of the class. We didn't have any major problems, but some of the computers were asking for a sign-on (which was "enter").
  • At the end of the class it took an admin sign-on to remove the Mind Manager programs. The Tech had loaded them the day before but didn't think signing on as administrator was out of the ordinary. The student sign-on didn't allow the deletion of programs from Control Panel.

And, most important event, I got the check the same day as the class. Always nice to get paid promptly. Industrial clients are often 45 days, standard terms.
