We&#8217;ve found a number of companies who say they offer PowerShell courseware developed by myself and sold by SAPIEN Technologies &#8211; yet we&#8217;ve never heard of these folks! We hope their intentions are completely honorable, and that they&#8217;re listing the courses to test their local market &#8211; and that they plan to actually purchase the courseware from us when they actually run a class, or contact us about train-the-trainer classes.<\/p>\n<p>For your knowledge, our official list of approved training companies is located at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scriptingtraining.com\/ilt\/partners.asp\">http:\/\/www.scriptingtraining.com\/partners.asp<\/a>.&nbsp; We update that list each time a new training company works with us, purchases courseware from us, and obtains the necessary training qualifications from us. We don&#8217;t make that a difficult process, and we&#8217;re happy to work with any qualified company or trainer.<\/p>\n<p>When you get official SAPIEN courseware, you&#8217;ll receive the <em>latest version<\/em> &#8211; we tweak the courses all the time, and by getting the latest, you&#8217;re getting the best.
