Update: Fixed the registration links.

I actually owe a much longer post on recent readiness (nee training) options and events for developers, architects and IT Professionals, but available time prevents me from tacking the 15 or 16 items in my "to do for blog" folder. This one event, however, warrants a more immediate shout out for two reasons. First, it's a live event as opposed to an online resource, thus timeliness matters. Second, space is limited so you'll want to register soon. The event is the Build Your Skills: Best Practices for .NET Developers Events, hosted by Jeff Brand and several of our highly talented local speakers.

Since Jeff has a full blown post with all the details, I will summarize the salient points here. And remember, space is limited (and selling out fast) so register soon!
