Isle of Hope United Methodist Church will be hosting an Audio Seminar and Media Seminar on June 26, 2010 from 8 AM to 6 PM (meals are provided). Those who attend this seminar will receive the highest level of professional training on operating sound and media systems. We have invited Advantage Unlimited AudioSeminar from Jacksonville, FL to our church to provide two separate seminars: A HANDS ON Audio seminar and a MediaSeminar. AudioSeminar has trained over 25,000 church volunteers and they are the leader in church audio training.
