I am instructor Bonnie Low-Kramen, 25-year former assistant to Oscar-winning actress Olympia Dukakis and author of the best-selling 
"Be the Ultimate Assistant."  It would
be my pleasure to have you join us for a transformational 2-days of learning and networking. This is the workshop that I wish
had existed when I first started in my career.

The 4-hour technology segment of the class is taught by Vickie Sokol Evans who is a former assistant and is now one of the most sought- after technology trainers in America. As a Microsoft Certified Trainer, Vickie is an expert on both PC and Mac and best of all, she "gets" what we do as assistants and the best ways to get it done.

Vickie who is the best and funniest technology trainer in the world.
