For the past 3 years QuickStart has focused on optimizing our schedule to reduce schedule changes and, even though today we offer the most robust Microsoft technical training schedule in our market with the fewest schedule changes, we wanted to do more. So, starting January 2010, we're putting our money where our mouth is and saying to customers 'We understand how critical it is for you to get the quality training when and where you need it. If we don’t come through on your registered class, we’ll pay for it!'
