It depends on the company and how much they back the concept. Don't
companies pay 3-4k (cost plus expenses) to send some employess on
weekly training trips
> And what does a FTE do in this case? Take vacation time?
Sure..why not? Is one week of vacation, one time, so precious that it
cannot be dedicated to self improvement?
remember...the whole process SHOULD be tough....isn't anything elite
usualy that way?

Often, as a sign of their great respect,
they don't even invite me."
