Cost

$300

Taught by Figure 53’s Sam Kusnetz, this class is your opportunity to make a thorough and deep exploration into all of QLab's features, get hands-on experience, ask questions, and hang out with other QLab users and Figure 53 staff.

This class is for anyone with a basic working knowledge of QLab. As long as you can set up a workspace and use simple cues, this class is for you—from advanced beginners to seasoned pros.

Registration is first-come, first-served and attendance is capped.

This class will not be live-streamed; the only way to attend is in person.

Please contact us at [email protected] if you would like to attend, but the admission fee is a financial hardship for you.

For the best experience, please bring your own Mac laptop capable of running QLab 5. A two-week demo license will be provided to give you full access to QLab’s features.

This is one of the best training programs I’ve ever attended. No matter what your experience level, if you have the chance to attend a QClass, I’d highly recommend it.
