@ Sean - we are still deciding which locations to run the Program(s) over the next year. We would like to do one in your part of the world (I've never been to that part of the world... so there's a good reason... :-) ) but as of now, no firm plans. As I have said in replies to the previous post though, you would still likely be paying for a hotel or some kind of accomodation whether it runs here in Redmond or in Australia (unless we run it at your house, which isn't terribly likely), so the only difference here is the flight. I know that still isn't cheap, but I just want to point that out. Commuting to the training is rarely successful, the days are just too long and intense.
@ Arley - At the price we are offering the Program we really are just covering our costs. The experts we have teaching, and the resources we use, are all very expensive. All the same, we know the price will still be out of reach for some markets, and whilst we would like to be able to do something about that, we don't yet have a model that allows us to reduce the cost without sacrificing the quality. And I'm not prepared for us to sacrifice the quality. This isn't your average training course.
And @ Brian - great, see you next year. Get some sleep in now, you won't get much whilst you are here.
