training?

[Peter A. Gnoffo]

I am new to the world of configuration management and CVS.
I am trying to get a sense of the need, if any, to purchase training
and support services for CVS to be used in a research tool software
development project. There are about a dozen people on the team
actively involved in code development, located on the same network.
We primarily work in unix environment (SGI's), but some may transfer
files to Windows laptops to work offsite. 
Advice appreciated.
Thanks,
Peter
