Before I start, can I check who is recording? Cool, Dierdra is, great. Also, can I ask someone to keep an eye on corp chat and pull in any pesky latecomers to the class channel? Thanks Cazzah.

OK, so I am going to be using Mumble to give the class. What I'd like to do is to use the in-game Class.E-UNI channel for any questions you might have as I go along and keep Mumble quiet. I will be watching the channel and if you ask a question I am going to cover in a few minutes then please don't think I am ignoring you, I will get to it. Also, if topics come up that might need some time to discuss, I've got 20 minutes at the end and we'll cover larger topics then.

For the class, I am going to run through research first, looking at a blueprint in detail and then covering the various research you can do on one and the skills involved. For those who know a little about research already, I intend to cover Invention in detail at the end. After covering the research side of things, I'll go into production, the skills involved and cover a little bit on how to get into production for profit. I'll finally cover invention, which is the production of tech 2 goods using invented tech 2 blueprints.

If they don't, then do kick them from the Mumble Class.E-UNI channel and in-game chat channel. Using the in-game channel commands, you can choose to mute them for a period as well.
