Apple Training: Request & Reminder

Hello Micronet & Magnetters,

Request & Reminder

There is Apple training offered on campus this summer. To ensure that
we can actually hold these classes, we need to know right away if you
are interested in attending any of these. We want to offer these first
to campus employees. If there is not enough interest, we will have to
cancel and/or open this up to outside the campus community. Please let
us know by Monday, June 13 if you are interested in Mac OS/X
essentials. Also, if you are interested in any of the other classes
please let us know at your earliest convenience.

Thank you!
Chris Haase, Apple Training Manager, chaase@apple.com/408.974.0599
