I am looking for a training venue so I can provide ASP.NET training courses. What I am looking for is a self-contained classroom with computers for 10-12 people. It would be nice to have easy access from public transport and parking. I would be concentrating on leeds initially. Having said that it would be great if the company has locations in manchester, york, edinburgh, birmingham and/or london. I found a chain that looked good but the prices were stupidly high despite the fact they only had windows 98 machines, no projector or whiteboard. Please help! If you are interested in attending a ASP.NET class get in contact too
