The class would be conducted at the llacility in 25X1
Suggested dates are 9 May 1966 throw h 27 May 25X1
The course is offered for a fixed price of 25X1
An Analysis of Estimated Engineering Cost is attached which provides
a cost breakdown. Terms are net 30 days. This quotation will remain
valid for a period of sixty (60) days from the date of this letter.
An outline showing the general scope of the course is attached. The
course is intended for electronic technicians or personnel with equivalent
backgrounds who are familiar with general digital logic and circuitry and
basic electronic theory. In addition to classroom sessions, training
sessions would be provided on the AP-3 computer itself, with actual
training in tracing waveforms, making adjustments and trouble shooting
the computer.
