(Sorry for the double post. I didn't realize I had replied with an inappropriate subject line. In the interest of clean list threads...)
I do not want to start a significantly off-topic thread, but would like some opinions on the need for Lingo/Director, Flash/ActionScript training. If anyone wants to respond, but feels Lingo training is off-topic, please do so off list. Additionally, if anyone (Tab?) feels that any resulting conversation that does ensure on the list, should be taken off-list, please speak up. I do a lot of academic and corporate training around the country. I am frequently asked about New York opportunities because I am from New York. Lately, I've been doing mostly academic stuff, which is impossible for non-students to partake in. Very shortly, I will be moving my offices and the thought occurred to me that maybe I could get a little more space that I could do some training in. I don't want any risk from being saddled with additional rent, so I'm thinking maybe 10 people at a time? A corporate kind of training, in the form of one or two 8-hour days, rather than 15 weeks of 2 hours a night. The question is, is there enough demand to break even? Does anyone have an opinion about the need for superior training in New York? I don't mean that as a boast, I mean that I will work hard to offer training that isn't easy to get. This includes intermediate and advanced training. I just don't know what the demand is. I assume that if there was enough demand, someone would be doing it. But there aren't a lot of opportunities. On the other hand, since I'm not looking to start a new career, maybe I wouldn't have to run many classes to break even on the additional rent and equipment leasing. I don't know. Any thoughts?
