Slot Tech Magazine has announced that registration is now open for TechFest 33. The three-day training event will be held at Mystic Lake Casino, May 16-18, 2017.
“This year, I am pleased to announce a world-class training event for slot managers that will run as a separate program alongside TechFest 33,” said Randy Fromm, publisher of Slot Tech Magazine and head instructor for the event. “You’ve probably heard of Lucien Wijsman and his Slot Academy, which has a reputation for delivering a huge amount of practical material in a manner that is both informative and super entertaining. If you think slot math is boring, think again.”
This is a fully credentialed and accredited slot management program (attendees receive full credit from UNR-the University of Nevada at Reno) and will be held alongside TechFest 33 at Mystic Lake Hotel Casino. It is three full days of slot management training, taught by one of the gaming world’s most respected casino professionals.
Slot Academy is part of the UNR extended studies program. This means that attendees to the Slot Academy get credits towards the UNR Gaming Management Program. They also receive a certificate from UNR for completing the Slot Academy course.
Topics covered during the event include (but are not limited to):
• Slot Machine Meters According to SAS protocol
• Slot Machine Myth and Math
• Progressive and Mystery Prize Management
• Floor layout Management
Please note that this three-day program is being offered at a substantial discount, in order to more closely align with the lower cost of the TechFest program. The full, three-day Slot Academy is $995.00. Outside of TechFest, this training costs $2,100.
“I am grateful to the Slot Academy for making this training opportunity available at TechFest 33 and that it’s being offered at such a deeply discounted rate,” said Fromm. “I’m not entirely certain that we’ll be able to repeat the program at TechFest 34 so if you can make it to Mystic Lake Casino this May, please take advantage of the offer. I expect this will be a sold-out event.”
Fromm notes as well as well that this is a no-nonsense training event: No golf tournaments (for charity or otherwise), no “meet and greets” and no cocktail parties.
“It is three, jam-packed days of first-class training at a world-class casino with a really great lunch served to you each day. What else could you possibly want? Slot techs, bring your boss!” said Fromm.
