Expert's Corner
Happy New Year!

Tom Salonek — Intertech CEO and Founder


This inaugural ’08 issue of the Intertech newsletter covers our resolutions for the New Year: 

 
    1. We resolve to continue to deliver the best instructor-led, software development training and consulting. Thanks to wonderful clients and phenomenal employees, we’ve earned a three-year 99.5%+ customer satisfaction rating.
 
    2. To support our software development community, we resolve to continue to offer free Oxygen Blast seminars. Our first Oxygen Blast is on Spring. It’s being held at Intertech on January 25th from 9:00 to 11:00 AM. This event will fill. Register early!
 
    3. Through this newsletter, we resolve to provide free, practical learning for the software development professional. Further, we resolve to expand offerings through Podcasts and YouTube presentations.
 
    4. Through our investment in research and development on the latest Java, .NET, and software development practices, we resolve to deliver new Complete courses. Look for announcements of new and updated classes, like our Complete Java Web Development course, in this newsletter.
 
    5. We resolve to continue to sponsor the Twin Cities Java User Group (TCJUG). For over a decade, this has been a free-of-charge way for Java developers to stay on top of their game.
 
    6. We resolve to continue to sponsor the Visual Studio Team System Minnesota (VSTS MN) User Group. Like TCJUG, we’re the founding sponsor of VSTS MN and provide the user group at no cost to members.
 
    7. We resolve to continue our commitment to being thought leaders. Look for Andrew Troelsen’s best-selling .NET books at Barnes and Noble and Amazon.com, James White’s publications in DevX.com, and for our team to present at some of the country’s top conferences.
 
    8. We resolve to provide world-class consulting that backs our training. If you’re interested in learning about how we can help make your next project a huge success, check out our consulting offering or give us a call at 651-994-8558 Ext. 11.
 
    9. We resolve to continue to make a positive impact in our community through volunteering and through donations to the Intertech Foundation. Since 2003, we’ve donated over $130,000 to our foundation which helps families of terminally ill children.
 
    10. We resolve to listen to you. From the classes we develop to consulting offerings like our free $5K ALM offering, our business is driven by you. If you have suggestions or ideas, email me at tsalonek@intertech.com
 
Well... that's our Top 10 List. Now it's time to get to work!

My best to You and Yours in '08
