Navigating the Cloud: Best Practices & Successes

I attended Training, Inc.'s "Success in the City" celebration the evening of November 15, 2011.    This event was held in the newly renovated Indiana Landmarks Center at 12th & Central in Indianapolis.   If you are in the area it's definitely worth a stop to see the beautiful restoration of this historic building.   It is also a great place to host a business or personal event. 

If you have not heard of Training, Inc. you really need to check them out as well.  This organization helps individuals by training them with office productivity skills including use of the Microsoft Office suite to make them more marketable in the workplace.  Training, Inc. is known as one of the best kept secrets in Indianapolis to help people on their way to job success.  Their focus in 2012 is to make sure they are no longer the "best kept secret".  LightBound will be hosting a Lunch and Learn early next year showcasing the services that Training, Inc. offers to help spread the word.   Training, Inc looks to place graduates of their training program in an office environment for 3 weeks at no cost to the business to give them some real world work experience.  If you would like to help someone to be successful in the business workplace kindly consider to give a look at the services provided by Training, Inc.
