From August 9th to August 12th (8:00 am until 6:00 pm), the workstations in the Dallas IBM TEC Center will be configured so you can drop in and try out software in the IBM Tivoli product suite.  Self-paced lab guides were created for the 2010 IBM Tivoli, WebSphere, Lotus, Rational and Information Management conferences and POTs that include step-by-step procedures for hands-on exercises with many IBM Tivoli products. These lab guides are intended to take you through a technical topic in 1 to 2 hours. The lab guides come straight from the IBM technical training classes.  This allows you to practice real-world scenarios with the Tivoli portfolio on the most recent versions of the products.

As a special bonus, if you schedule and attend at least one Lab during this event, you will be eligible to participate in the Special Fun Lab. This group challenge will require multiple skills to complete and includes hands-on experience with hardware and software.
