Craig, I might be interested for the New England area. What kind of traveling is involved?
-
I'm looking into whether the positions are regional or national. (Somehow one of the links is broken and the folks "in the know" are working on that right now.)
I'll let you all know as soon as I hear back.

It's a shame you don't have such training programmes in Europe...

Ha! Thanks, Craig!
I used to tech for 9 years and I realy miss it.

Wow, CraigD, that sounds like fun. Too bad I have a job I love. Last year would have been perfect.

I'm ATC Trainer here in Germany, but all is done by the resellers. So people do not have any knowledge of what is possible here. No Fairtrades, no marketing, no services, no POC
coming up from Google...only web advices. Yep, it's a shame. -
I could teach Ruby, and would REALLY enjoy it, but I could only do weekend gigs.

I'm sure it does, Craig...
The problem for me is, that you don't seem to have similar seminars running in Europe...
If you had I would most definitely be very interested...!
(and I meet all your requirements... ) -
Craig, this is very interesting and I would jump on it if it were not for 3 factors.
- I have a full time job that I love and cannot leave.
- I just started with Form Fonts as well and need to "settle in".
- Other than: "Hey where is the Great Wall of China?" or "What does my house look like?" I have never used Google Earth let alone modeled anything for it.
Thanks for posting this up here however. I am sure you will get some more interest as the week progresses.
-
#3 is very disheartening....
Take a look at some of the 3D work that is going on there. Look at Westport, Ireland, or Marvao Portugal if you want to see some interesting 3D work.

Back on topic...
If the the job looks interesting (and you don't share Eric's POV), please throw your hat in the ring.
Cheers,

Europe, Craig, Europe!
