The Freedom Scientific training team offers ongoing opportunities for you to join us in live training sessions and advance your skills. We’re excited to announce our jam-packed May training schedule, where you’re sure to find something that will help you at work, school, or play.
To focus on a wider range of topics, Ask Sharky will now occur twice a month rather than four times.
If you have questions or need assistance with registration, email training@vispero.com. We also welcome your suggestions for future training events.
