Pentera's Comprehensive 5-Day seminar took place August 20-24, 2007, in Indianapolis, Indiana. Read a few remarks from this year's seminar participants…
"My evaluation of this conference is simply stated; this was the best conference I have attended in any discipline."
"While it was incredibly intense and at times I had to ask myself 'what in the world did I sign up for,' I must admit walking away feeling much more confident with tools and terms that I was not familiar with before."
"The seminar was excellent. It met and exceeded my needs and was perfectly timed for my career development."
"The sessions were an excellent combination of complexity and basic concepts. I feel much more prepared to begin my gift-planning career."
