I know when I was living in an RPG world in a previous life, you could take a pre-test for the IBM RPG's certification. Does anyone know if they have that available for U2? If so, you could have them take the pre-test. After identifying any weak spots, have Kevin at Precision Solutions whip you up a course just on what they need. He was fantastic working with me to identify my needs, and then creating a course with just the content I needed. After emails back and forth discussing certain aspects, he was able to condense several courses into one. In this day and age where time is so valuable, it was a Godsend. He is reasonably priced also!!
I am sure Jon's courses are great also. I simply have not experienced any of his training. He does write great books...I do know that!!
