RoboHelp I'm not sure about, but if I'm not mistaken, the only people who
can teach FrameMaker are teachers who are certified by Frame Technologies.
You can't just learn FrameMaker on your own and decide to teach it. This is
why these teachers are difficult to find. Lots of places offer courses in
Word, Excel, Ventura, etc, but they rarely have FrameMaker, mainly because
they don't want to have to pay much more for a "certified" (that word
again...!) FrameMaker teacher. So if you're interested, call Frame
Technologies. Maybe they'll even tell you where Jimmy Hoffa has been hiding!!
Please someone correct me if I'm wrong.
