Building off a successful charity auction at CES in 2002, eBay will hold 17 eBay University classes in the Las Vegas Hilton during the show. Taught by eBay experts, these free seminars will include general training about how to buy and sell on eBay. For sellers, the classes will provide insight into using eBay as a complementary channel to reach new customers. Sessions will cover tips and tricks for buyers of all levels, selling for individuals, and selling for manufacturers, retailers and small businesses.

CES is North America's largest technology tradeshow. The 2003 International CES will showcase the latest innovations from 2,000 international exhibitors in wireless communications, gaming, digital video, high-end or "extreme" audio, accessories, CE fashion, consumer technology networking, broadband, mobile electronics, content media, new business technology, delivery systems and the Internet.
