Updated for all 2009 Announcements and the Most Recent SCRT Release! Everything you need to know about Workload License Charges and IRD is included in this multi-day class. It was developed based on my consulting work with IBM and other clients since March, 2000. Actual customer analysis of the Workload License Charges versus previous charging techniques are included. The seminar contains more information than can be presented through our papers at Share, CMG and other conferences.

With the information presented you will be able to make changes in your site that will lead to lower IBM Monthly (MLC) Software Charges. Attendees are also often able to reduce their IPLA "required value units", which defers the point at which they need to acquire additional value units.

The next public seminar is will likely be in Frankfurt during 2010. (The seminar will be presented in English.)

As an in-house class you can ask all the questions you have that are particular to your installation.

Other Dates: The seminar will be scheduled in the US and Europe during 2010; watch this web site for more information or send an email asking to be notified.
