Training: Pre-Registration for 2008 Technical Communication Seminars

In order to plan the seminar schedule for 2008, a pre-registration
form is now available at:
http://www.microtype.com/2008-TC-Training-PreReg.pdf
(fillable PDF form, submitted electronically).

In the form, you specify the seminars you are interested in, and
your preferred time frame and location. If the seminar you are
interested in is not listed, please specify your request in the
Comments field.

Based on the pre-registration forms I receive, I will do my best

locations and dates are finalized.

Thanks!
