The training, like the SES conference, will be held at the Chicago Hilton. Training is open to SES Chicago conference attendees or independently.
“In addition to our exciting keynoters and other speakers at SES Chicago, we’ve lined up workshop trainers who have been in the industry since its beginning and have acquired a wealth of best practice expertise,” explained Matt McGowan, Vice President and Publisher for Incisive Media’s Interactive Marketing Group, including Search Engine Strategies, Search Engine Watch and the ClickZ Network. “Past attendees have reported that one thing they especially like is the small class size because they have the opportunity to interact with workshop leaders on a one-on-one basis. This will continue at SES Chicago.”
