I never cease to be amazed at the number of expensivley-build, lavishly-equipped modern conference and training rooms that have all their lights operated by a single switch. The walls are well lit in these rooms, which means that the lights have to be switched off in order for anything projected onto them to be seen ... leaving traineed fumbling for keys on their laptops, or straining to read notes and add further annotations to them.

In our own training centre, you won't get the impression of a modern room; there's Georgian plasterwork (cornicing) in the room in our nearly-200-year-old listed building, but there's also five discrete controls on the lights allowing us to provide you with good light onto your notes, while leaving our projector screen dark if we so choose.

This is a page archived from The Horse's Mouth at http://www.wellho.net/horse/ - the diary and writings of Graham Ellis. Every attempt was made to provide current information at the time the page was written, but things do move forward in our business - new software releases, price changes, new techniques. Please check back via our main site for current courses, prices, versions, etc - any mention of a price in "The Horse's Mouth" cannot be taken as an offer to supply at that price.
