**Training Videos**
	The training videos are available on the DVD. Because of the file size(s), many videos may be difficult to download or see directly from the web if the Internet is slow. Most can be viewed directly on Youtube. It the are needed for training purposes, it may be best to have the video on a DVD. Please contact Norplan or RuWatSIP for copies of the project DVD where all videos presented here are available in different file formats.
