I've got another idea...

There are 21 training events in 4 countries scheduled over the next six
months from EnterpriseDB, CertFirst, Open Technology Group and others.

18 PostgreSQL Administration
3 PostgreSQL Implementation, Performance & Tuning
2 Implementing Databases with PostgreSQL
And 6 other types

The real estate is definitely there from the old way that events were 
listed, we could show 3 upcoming "course types" with the most recent of 
each type listed.  That allows visitors to see the range of offerings as 
well as some numbers.

I still think that there should be a limit as to the number of courses a 
vendor can list and/or a limit on the number of each type of course (for 
example, dextra could list a maximum of 3 upcoming admin courses, 3 
upcoming intro courses, etc.).  Limiting by type would also encourage 
training vendors to put more effort into offering a range of courses, 
and keep things on the up-and-up from a listing perspective...thus 
preventing event spam.
