conference for training and web developers.
Best and most productive conference I've ever been to!
-- comment from a 2006 attendee
I can emphatically state that attending my very first TBCON has
been one of the most defining moments of my business. The business has not been
the same ever since I've learned how to integrate a database with a ToolBook
file. After making our entire CBT load from a database, we then used the
VBTrain.Net controls and what we learned at TBCON to do the same thing with our
ASP.NET content. The nice part is that we create a web version or a tbk version
literally at the click of a button. Unlike the past, we now spend most of our
time proofing rather than assembling, which is a really good thing.
-- Kim Halat, Avsoft, Inc., 2004
Personally, TBCON accelerates my knowledge and ability to
efficiently use ToolBook by at least six months each year I have attended. I
find it a very easy investment to cost-justify. And, on top of that, it is a
lot of FUN!
-- comment from a 2002 attendee
This is the only conference I have ever attended that is not
primarily a sales pitch. Great job!
-- comment from a 2005 attendee

The info and tools I got here saved me more than the conference costs.

I would highly recommend attending TBCON. My work colleagues and I have attended the past two TBCONs and feel that each year what we have learned at TBCON has accelerated our use and knowledge of ToolBook by at least 6 months. There are many sessions at TBCON that are good for beginners; but I would especially recommend the preconference workshops as they will enable you to get hands-on experience using ToolBook. Best of all, you will meet lots of people who will become valuable resources for you as you become more familiar with ToolBook.

TBCON was the best I have been to in several years. Cheers to Jeff, Chris, and all the Platte Canyon gang for a great conference.

Not like the typical stuffy conference. Probably because there were no vendors trying to impress others with flashy exhibits.
