Learn the Essentials of VMware View

Merit Network is pleased to host VMware View: Install, Configure, Manage [V4.5] in Ann Arbor on February 28-March 2, 2012.

VMware View is VMware's desktop virtualization product, allowing desktop operating systems and applications to be deployed from a server infrastructure. This hands-on, VMware-instructed course builds your skills in the VMware View suite of products: VMware View Manager, VMware View Composer, and VMware ThinApp. The course is based on the View 4.5 and ThinApp 4.6 releases; the course may be updated to View 5.0 depending on VMware's completion of the course for that software release.

Merit Members who register before December 16, 2011, can save an additional $200 off the already discounted Member registration price. Scholarships are available, and VMware PSO credits may be used as payment for this class; see below for details.
