Traveling 'peripatetic' tutors who train away from their usual base need a portable program that complements their busy teaching schedule. The single user edition conveniently enables the trainer to deliver a professionally prepared theory and practice session from a desktop PC or a laptop, at any venue.

The single user disk is supplied with a single user license. It is designed for portability and, as such, works exclusively on the PC in which the CD-ROM is inserted.
