For those who have the possibility, there is a great course on FINALE held by Giorgio Bussolin (our forum member) aimed at beginner and intermediate level users.
There is the possibility, upon request, to activate a course for advanced users.
Attached is the program; for information http://www.ischiamusica.com/

Damn it, if I were in Rome I would have come to do this course.

But... how much would all of this cost? (course + accommodation)

OK, I read on the site 100ā¬ for the course + 50ā¬ registration fee. However, there is one thing I don't understand... if the planned course hours are 12, why are they "spread out" over seven days? A more "intensive" course would have cost less for a hotel... not to mention the problem of being absent from other activities for an entire week.

Gino, you won't want to go to Ischia just to work, will you?!

Dear Gino, given that I agree 100% with DiesIrae (you do 2 hours of course per day and then you lounge around in one of the hotel's two thermal pools, or you take a nice steam bath, or go listen to the numerous concerts by the professors and students, in short, you enjoy Ischia which is wonderful...), let me explain the reason for the distribution of the course.
The lesson days are 6 (from Monday the 13th to Saturday the 18th, for 2 hours a day. From personal experience (I have been teaching Finale for 13 years), the amount of information with which I "bombard" my students every day is such that after two hours attention drops drastically and makes the lesson itself rather unproductive. Also consider that after every lesson I give the students exercises on the topics covered, so you will still need another hour or two to do... the homework for the next day.
Furthermore, we have agreed on this schedule with the organization because there are students who also follow other courses besides mine, and therefore by doing this we give them the possibility to attend everything without problems.
Ultimately, it is a lovely, rich, and fun week, at a truly derisory cost compared to other similar realities, and - said without personal interest - the overall quality of the offer is such that I would recommend it to any musician.
Attention because, in case, the registration deadline is approaching (September 15th).
Kind regards, Giorgio

I'll think about it... as far as work commitments allow.
Thank you for the explanations
