I'm located in the Mid-Atlantic; I have 3 customers who have asked me recently about formal training classes for new TSM admins other than the IBM offerings (which aren't offered very often locally).
I also know about the excellent classes taught by StorServer, but they are geographically difficult. If anybody has found other training classes on the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast/MidWest they have had GOOD results with, that are still offered, please let me know.
