Greetings!

Check Your Calendar! Daylight Saving Time Update
 

Be sure to check whatever program (Outlook, Entourage, GoldMine, etc.) you use to keep track of your appointments!

With Daylight Saving Time starting a bit early this year, your computer's clock might not have updated automatically. Also, you'll want to look to see if all of your appointments have jumped an hour ahead!

Make sure you check because you don't want to miss any OCS Client Training Courses or Informational Web Conferences you have scheduled!
