Training classes
I think $795.00 is to much for a two day class. Most people I talk to who are getting into Drupal Can't Afford a $800.00 class.
Something more reasonable should be expected. I heard of classes less then $800.00 for 4 days. My suggestion is to reduce the cost of the class to $295.00 and build a bigger and better educated Drupal Community as a whole, IF people can't find reasonable educational solutions for Drupal then they will most likely use alternate CMS programs.

Totally agree with ptomaro
While I don't doubt the quality of this class, $800 would be a hard sell in convincing stakeholders of the worth of attending a class such as this one. I am sure overall you would still come out far ahead by lowering the cost, as attendance would definitely increase.
Pricing for Manalapan NJ
Please consider the average person just getting into Drupal and don't know much. They looking for solutions to attend training. Most of them don't belong to a big firm that is getting thousands of dollars to web development, in fact most of the people doing Drupal are home based and working on their own. Many are new to Drupal and looking for a solution for their own site or helping out a friend. Some have suffered with Hurricane Sandy. Its is my opinion that we should offer training solutions In New Jersey that offer people a hand up not a pick of their pocket.
DrupalCamp is sold out, why? because people are looking for reasonable solutions and want to be part of a group that cares about the future of Drupal Development Community.
Providing "Affordable Solutions" with give developers the means to be truly independent and a asset to the Drupal Community for years to come.
I talking from experience and I have been developing website since 1995. and Have my own marketing company since 1985.
Remember: Talent Is another word for Educated People!
