Detailed course outlines are available upon request. Leading Edge will provide all materials and can schedule these courses during normal office hours, after hours, or any combination thereof. Courses typically require about 20 to 25 hours of class time. A major effort is made to select real, current projects of interest to the client to demonstrate the various concepts.
