At Performance Associates, we view seminars as a logical extension of our continuing research work on I/O subsystems. Our seminars are intended to provide the most current and authoritative information available on the complex storage subsystem management issues that Information Technology organizations face today.

Detailed descriptions and scheduling information for our seminars may be found by clicking on the seminar names shown in the left hand column of this page.

Seminar Materials

Technical currency of the seminar materials is one of our highest priorities at Performance Associates. Rather than updating the materials on a time available basis, we use the seminar materials as the repository of our ongoing research related to OS/390, UNIX, Windows 2000, and Windows XP. Hence our seminar notes are updated as a result of every new article we read, session we attend, or technology we evaluate, as well as comments and questions that arise each time a seminar is presented.

The materials for each seminar are printed just prior to each presentation since we want our students to have the most current information available. Like you, we have been to seminars where a few hundred sets of the notes were printed last year and the student is expected to update their materials during the presentation. If it was announced last week, expect it to be in our seminar!

Public Seminar Venue

All of Performance Associates’ public seminars are conducted at the Days Hotel in Herndon, VA. The hotel is adjacent to the Washington Dulles Airport. Group rates have been negotiated at the Days Hotel property.

In-House Seminars

Performance Associates is pleased to respond to requests for in-house training from our clients. We can tailor seminars to meet the specific needs of clients and can integrate consulting with the educational process to assist the students in solidifying the seminar concepts while they are addressing real problems in their environment.
