  I think the last offered course here in the US was "RSTS/E V9 Update",
back in the Spring of 1985. Europe tends to be a larger customer for PDP-11
systems, so they probably offered these courses longer over there.

  There were a set of book-based self-paced instruction kits, RSTS/E User
and RSTS/E Management, also both discontinued.

  You could call Mr. Peter Dick of Silver Programs at (0256)881658. He does
various interesting things with RSTS/E, and I believe he also offers train-
ing. His complete address is:

	Silver Programs Ltd
	Latchmere Green
	Little London
	Hampshire RG26 5EJ

  I hope this helps...
