Evenings, maybe during lunch

Could you attend a class for three weeks in a row at the same time? No

What times would be best for you? Lunchtime or 4:00 pm

Would you be willing to pay a nominal fee ($10 US) for such a course? Based on Content - Perhaps an AUGI subscription or Premium Membership could cover this for an annual fee? Not sure we want we want to go down that road though!

Are you happier with the way the ATP classes are delivered now instead, on your own time? Yes, although the previous suggestion of an animated or scripted class is intriguing...canned video or perhaps Shockwave/flash like the New Features Workshop?

What subject matter interests you the most? Programming

Hi Beth

Would you be interested in participating in a live ATP class? Probably.

If so, what time zone are you in? GMT.

Could you attend a class for three weeks in a row at the same time? Would be a little difficult but could possibly happen (would definitely happen if I was paying for such a service).

What times would be best for you? 7:00am 12:30pm after 5:00pm (All times based on GMT).

Would you be willing to pay a nominal fee ($10 US) for such a course? Yes, but only if I believed the course was extremely beneficial + I also agree with Richard above, goes AUGI really want to start going down that road.

Are you happier with the way the ATP classes are delivered now instead, on your own time? How they work presently is fine, but as they're *free* I wouldn't complain how they are delivered, am just grateful such classes (mini-courses) are available.

What subject matter interests you the most? 3D / Customization / Programming.

For those that have made comments with regard to charging for ATP classes, I also don't want to see AUGI go down that road.

I have been involved with ATP in one form or another for many years now. It is my main AUGI focus and I have done everything in my power to see that it continues as it has and will continue to push for it to continue as a free service.

It was not my idea to post any question about possibly charging, but the ATP team has a duty to the AUGI Board to explore all possibilities and that is what we have done here by asking. Your comments will show the Team and the Board what you want.

We appreciate your feedback!

Hi Beth,

Would you be interested in participating in a live online ATP class? If so, what time zone are you in? Possibly, depends on the course material. If so, Eastern time.

If a live online class were offered over three consecutive weeks at the same time, would you be interested in participating? Erm, difficult to plan ahead of time. I guess it would depend on the time they wound up being broadcast at. I'm with the others in thinking that a downloadable video would be better - that way, I can watch it whenever I have time, and can always go back later and watch it again.

What day and time would be the most convenient for you? M-F, between 11:30am and 12:30pm, or before 8am, or Fridays after 5pm

Would you be willing to pay a nominal fee ($10 US) for such a course? Depends on the course, but I'd much prefer free

What subject matter interests you the most? tips 'n tricks, programming, customization, new product features

Are happy with present the ATP program and don't see a need to change? maybe "change" is too strong a word here - I'm finding the current ATP program beneficial, and was thinking that the broadcast would be more an additional program, not replacing the current one.
