Enrollment will begin September 20th.  We are currently working on setting up a mini-website at www.web-hosting-university.com.  One of our clients, (who also happened to be one of the people leading the Phoenix University online initiative), is setting up Moodle and helping us create lessons in e-Learning format.

The class has been scheduled to start on October 17th.

If you want help building the website, I have some free time.

The website is not even half done yet, but several people have already registered for the class so we are letting everyone else know that they can go ahead and register at www.web-hosting-university.com.  If you are a client of AlphaOne Technology or Webs 4 Christ email info@alphaone-tech.com before you register to get your discount coupon code.

We already have 5 people signed up and the class is limited to 10.

We have 3 openings still avaliable in our first Web Hosting 101 class.  If you are interested, please visit http://www.web-hosting-university.com

We had tentatively set October 17th for a start date but this may be delayed until October 24th.  Since this is our first time teaching this class, it is possible this class will run longer than 12 weeks.

Peace

What is latest on class?  Will you all be sending emails to registrants?  I haven't received any...

I got something addressed to all resellers.  It looked like it was sent from WHM.  Wolf postponed the first class to the 25th because Brad's dad is in the hospital and Brad is co-teaching the class.

I'd email wolf and see why you didn't get it.

Hmmm...you are the 2nd person to tell me they did not get that email.  Jen you are right - I sent it via WHM "email all resellers".

I am so sorry Jeff.  Brad's dad is in the hospital and I have been swamped.  Originally we were going to do the class starting this past Monday using both Moodle and a private SMF forum with some attachments and stuff.  Because of the work involved in creating a scorn from a PPT, I have scrapped the idea of using Moodle for the first run of this class.  Basically Richard created a scorn of the 1st lesson and was willing to create all of them for Moodle, but *I* keep adding stuff to it.

And after last week where we got socked for the first time ever with THREE fraudulant orders, I am adding still more information to the class on anti-fraud protection etc.

I will be emailing, by hand, all participants today with the URL to the private forums and a link to the 1st PPT lesson.  We will officially start on Monday.
