Be sure to mention these meetings to your bosses, too.  Let them know that
training and keeping up skills is not just a benefit to the employee but
to the company as well.  It amazes me how much information transfers even
at the regular monthly user group meetings.  To me the local user group
monthly meeting is the best bang for the buck that an employer has. A few
dollars for dues, a low-cost travel expense, one meal, and a few hours
away from the desk is their cost and the benefit is tremendous.  Not only
that, but programs can be tailored to meet current interests and needs, so
everyone comes out a winner.
