You know its funny. Command Prompt, OTG-Inc, SRA and Big Nerd Ranch
*all* offer training.
Last I checked, OTG had to cancel classes because of lack of demand
(please verify Chander). </pre></blockquote> We tried to offer classes in Santa Clara, CA (and may do so again), but
didn'thave sufficient demand to run them. There were 2 people that had expressed interest in that class. However, I

*regardless*of the number of students enrolled - it's our policy to not cancel classes here...) <br /><br /> On

Command Prompt currently only trains corps with 12+ people per class so
we are a bit different.
