For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))
Mushroom Curry and Perl Courses

When I first ate a chicken chop suey, in my childhood, the dish was described and explained to me to help me decide whether or not I wanted to try it. But once I have tried and decided about chicken chop suey, I could make an educated guess what beef chop suey and vegetable chop suey would be (as I already knew about beef and veg), so I really didn't need any further explanation - indeed, it would have been a waste of everyone's time to do the explaining.

It's a little bit the same on training courses. I'm running a Perl course this week, and I'm making sure that I explain one of each type of facility, with good practical sessions, before I go on to the next type of facility / concept. Once we've see a function such as cos to take a cosine, it's pretty obvious what sin and exp do. In other words, my delegates know what chicken curry is (I have told them) and they know from school what mushrooms are. So I'm letting them work out mushroom curry for themselves, and going on to talk about Nasi Goreng.
