Wireless Workbench Workshops!
Small, two hour hands-on classes covering my tips and workflow to use Shure’s Wireless Workbench to quickly and confidently solve your wireless challenges every time!
- I’m offering up to six Cincinnati sessions in May.
- Class sizes will be limited to just 5 people per session.
- I’ll make some really good guacamole, too!
Once registrations fill-up, I’ll announce dates and reach out to schedule!
If you’re not able to make it, your spot will held for a future class.
Classes will take place at Event Enterprises in Belleview, KY.
