Not. Don't bring your spouse.

If your spouse can't spend a few days at a time away from you, then consulting isn't the right profession for you and your family.

Really not a smart idea to bring your spouse to any work training. I've literally never had time to do anything outside of classes and work dinners at a week long training. If you want to explore both of you can stay the weekend before and you can send your spouse home day 1

Op, this post causes so many questions. First, why would you think it was even a possibility to bring your spouse to DU? Second, why would you want to?!? Third, it sounds like she/he is planning on coming with you no matter what - why? And forth, why would he / she ever want to come to Dallas and stay in a hotel near DU? There is absolutely nothing to do and there's no chance that you will ever see your SO. Your SO will be alone in a hotel room in the middle of nowhere burning hot Texas the whole time

@D8- No. I could not bring my wife to SM training. Absolutely not.

@op you have your entire day planned out for you at DU, down to the minute, from the time you wake to the time you sleep. You won't have time to chill with your fam.

Don't take her... You will be so busy...

I think I was told at some point that you can bring spouses to DU starting with manager training or something. Don't quote me though. I just know from one SM that did bring his spouse. However, if that were the case, they probably would have told you in the invite. There's no point in bringing her if she can't stay at DU. You will have no time to leave, and any spare time you do manage to get you should spend networking.

I emailed the recruiter to f/u on Friday and still have not gotten a reply. Should I be concerned?
