SMART Technologies Website offers some free and some paid training. There is a group of free, self-paced videos about the basics of using the SMART Notebook software. I have linked directly to those below. In addition, there are webinars offered regularly. For example, there is an online training about SMART Notebook which takes place every Monday & Wednesday at 2:30. Check out the SMART Notebook training area of their website to see what you might find useful.
