Heidi Swenson spoke at the April 2000 meeting of CPCUG's Entrepreneurs and Consultants SIG.

Speaker: Heidi Swenson has been designing, developing, and maintaining Web sites for 5 years. After repeated requests from clients for Web site maintenance training, she began onsite Web training, which quickly blossomed into full-service Web site design and development training. As her client base grew, Ms. Swenson founded Digital Division, Inc., which offers individual, group, customized, and intensive Webmaster and Web Programmer Boot Camp training.

Free Parking: There's construction underway at NIH, so try to arrive a little early. (There are traffic police on the NIH campus--even on Saturday. So please observe the signs. Speeding or rolling through stop signs, or letting out passengers in unauthorized locations near the Metrorail station, for example, can result in tickets.)  You may park in the indoor parking garage of Building 10. Enter from Memorial Drive and park on the P3 level. Watch for and observe the parking signs as well. Some spaces are limited to cars driven by "handicapped" drivers and others are only for "small compact" cars. Tell any parking attendant you are attending a CPCUG event (there will be no charge). You may also park in the many outdoor parking lots.
