The survey results are in! In summarized form: Most of you prefer Wednesday’s, mostly in the evening. The suggestions were mostly: a) Make sure your lab works and b) Consistency. As far as format, of the options I presented (Lecture, Guest Speaker, Open Discussion, Live Lab) all weighed about equally. Finally, most of y’all are at least VCP and heading for “The Next Big Thing”.
So what does this mean for the future of the Brown Bags? Well, thanks to the continued sponsorship of TrainSignal, we’ll be continuing to run these on a bi-weekly basis, using each session to cover a section of the VCAP-DCA Blueprint. We will occasionally have a guest speaker or two join up, but for the most part it’ll be Lecture/Lab Demo.
Now for the critical bits: How to sign up!
Details:
Series Length: 18 sessions

For this first round, we’ll be featuring Sean Crookston from vFail.net, who has already done some excellent work putting a VCAP DCA Study guide together.
These will be recorded and posted after each session for the folks who can’t make it at this time.
Nice, liking the fact you will have the recordings since 9pm ET for me is hit or miss. Thanks for doing these!
Wait, are these at 8pm ET (7pm CT) or 9pm ET (8pm CT)? The above says 8pm central (making it 9pm ET for me), but the Outlook invite says 8pm ET (which makes it 7pm CT)?
Sweet! Do you have to register in order to gain access to the recorded session? I’m in class at 8pm but would love to watch it after
I’ll give it a go , but I dont know if I’m going to be firing on all cylinders at 1am 🙂
I am indeed bad at typing. It is indeed 8PM EST.

Nope. Recordings will be available on vimeo after the show (generally
in 24h) we’re also working on itunes. I also make follow-up posts for
each, so if you are subscribed via rss you will also be notified.
Looking forward to watching the recordings! Unfortunately too difficult to make this time, but will definitely be taking advantage of the recordings once posted!
Thanks a bunch for rockin’ these!
uhh, live session would be nice, but it’s 3AM for me 🙂 looking for the recorded one.
Sorry, I signed up for the session this evening but cannot make the time (GMT)!! I will be sure to get the download though. Just looking at starting revising for the DCA so will keep an eye on the site
Sorry you cant make it, but thanks for stopping by. Glad to help.
