Having a section on commercial offering is good (we already have it somehow), but what's needed is something more "proactive" to notify people of upcoming events such as these training sessions, and I don't think people are looking the website in search of regularily updated data. Sure, a RSS feed would help, but how much will subscribe to this feed?
"If it's any good, they will come." Don't you and your family visit small shops who don't do any advertising, just because of word-of-mouth, i.e. someone referring you to it? If we have an actively maintained ad section with an RSS feed, pointing to interesting web pages, this might be enough for people to subscribe to that feed and decide for themselves how frequently they'll check that feed. I wouldn't even mind having a course calendar with all offerings side-by-side on our site: it shows people Cocoon is a serious project, and that they can choose to attend courses in plenty of different locations.
