Call some of your local Invesment Banking Firms ans ask if they are involved in Options Trading (as not all IBF's are). When you find a firm or firm's who do, ask them if they are conducting any seminars or workshops with open attendance. This will allow you to sit in and listen to who they are, what they do, what they offer, how it works, etc.. After their presentation is over, you can usually speak with a broker 1 on 1 and they should always be more than happy to answer any and all questions you have! Good luck.
