Workshops
WebGUI Workshops take place August 26th - 27th.
Because we want you to get the most out of your WUC experience, we
are offering two full days of workshops to fully prepare you for the
wealth of information presented at the conference. These workshops are
aimed at new users of WebGUI. Each workshop is conducted by members of
the Plain Black staff. Class sizes will be small, so we can ensure all
individual questions and concerns are addressed in a personal and
comfortable environment. We will also be leaving time throughout both
days where we'll help you work directly on any specific projects or
sites you're currently involved in. So please bring any questions that
have been nagging you or have you stumped.
Since these workshops are supplementary to the WUC, they can be
purchased and attended separately from the WUC itself. The workshops
consist of two tracks, one for content managers and another for
designers. Each track runs for two days and begins at 9:00 am and runs through 4:30 pm or until there are no more questions.
