TMC University SIP: Interview With Dialogic's Jeff Dworkin

With the ITEXPO pre-show activities reaching a fever pitch here at TMC headquarters, I took some time to speak with Jeff Dworkin of Dialogic, who will be heading up the TMC University Certification Course SIP: The Foundation For Building Enhanced Services to find out a bit more about the initiative.
 
Dworkin explained the goal of the certification as well as how Dialogic fits in to the whole SIP subject matter.
