5-Day Onsite/Webseminar and “Live” not virtual Lab

An executive and operational guide to SIP-Session Initiation Protocol & Microsoft OCS-Office Communications Server/Communicator available in classroom (onsite) format of five (5) days or custom version.  This course is designed to help enterprise technical-executive managers, channel partners and others better understand SIP-Session Initiation Protocol and Microsoft’s OCS-Office Communications Server.  There is more than a year of research, interviews, discussions, meetings and presentations to channel partners, providers, manufacturer's and other interested parties in the SIP-VoIP industry.  In addition to the classroom presentation, a “live OCS” lab/demonstration for all students is included.  The purpose of the virtual demonstration is to give attendees a “road test drive” of OCS and be able to ask implementation and configuration questions.  The lab is always in development and services/features may change without notice.
