We are constantly adding new features, elements and capabilities to CommonSpot. Many, if not most, of these are added as a result of a need or request from a web author or department. We have scheduled these sessions to show you some of the new features and elements which are not included in the basic training.

No registration is required for these informal sessions. We will demonstrate new elements, and invite you to ask questions or make additional suggestions.
