I read a note posted on the OPASS LinkedIn site today about our upcoming SQLSaturday and the two pre-cons by Stacia Misner and Kevin Kline. I say and think pre-cons, but does the new DBA? Their boss? Seminar, One Day Class, or something else, we need to call it something that resonates. Pre-con is in crowd language, not everyone is in.
Put on your marketing hats. Let’s find a phrase or name that helps the attendee and the decision maker instantly get what we’re providing.

How about “Advanced Session”? Or even “Advance Session”? Both phrases describe what a pre-con is.

Agreed. “Full-day seminar” — everyone knows what that means. Or, “workshop.”
Precon? Eh?

I like Adam””””s contribution, “Workshop,” but that””””s just me. “Paid Learning,” might also be very explanatory. 🙂
