What do course participants say about the class?

I enjoyed the WebWorks Publisher class very much. Since then, I have used WebWorks successfully to generate HTML Help from Frame using the HTML Help template.

Thank you for a most informative and enjoyable WebWorks Publisher training class. My colleague and I both feel that we are much better prepared to proceed with the rework of or documentation projects using WebWorks.

You just enabled me to toss RoboHELP! WebWorks Publisher worked beautifully, and I delivered the help file to my client. Thanks so much.
