Advanced Turbify Seminar and Workshop, Boston, Massachusetts, June 5-6, 2003

Registration for this event is now closed.

Join recognized designers Istvan Siposs and Michael Whitaker and fellow Yahoo! Store operators for this popular training seminar and learn how to build a custom Turbify. Responding to valuable suggestions from previous seminars, we are now offering this course in a hands-on two-day format in a state-of-the-art computer lab. We are confident that the combination of theory and practice will provide attendees with a compelling learning experience.

AGENDA
