SUBJECT: Need Help In all probability, you probably know that the Marketing Division has the responsibility of planning the fall training conference to be held in Miami. Here are the speakers I have lined up for training sessions. I'm thinking that on Tuesday, October 11, we will have Marley A. Moody. Her scheduled topic is "Using E-Mail and IM Effectively." Jackson J. Huggins said he could speak to our group on October 12 (Wednesday). "Leading Groups and Teams" is the topic for Huggins. The last speaker is Sebastian Estrada, scheduled for Thursday, October 13.
His topic is "Database Management." Here are their e-mail addresses-Estrada: Sebastian@toptalent.com. Huggins: jjhuggins@sunbelt.net. Moody: Marley.moody@etc.com. Lucia, you can help us make this one of the best training sessions ever. I need you to send each of these people an e-mail and confirm the dates and topics. Due to the fact that we must print the schedule soon, I will need this done as soon as possible. Don't hesitate to call if you have any questions.
