10 training days to Christmas.

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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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))

There are just ten training days left to Christmas ... and I have four courses to give.

Next Monday to Wednesday, I'm running a public Tcl course that's followed by a Tk course on Thursday and Friday. It's a bit late for me to advertise the Tcl (!) but actually our hotel is full so any more places with accommodation would have to be "accommodation elsewhere". We do have a couple of "day places" available though.

And then on 17th and 18th I'm doing a C bootcamp - for experienced programmers who want to learn some C and that leads into a C++ bootcamp - prior knowledge of C assumes - on 19th and 20th.

Yes, I know I said "10 training days" left ... and that's only 9. I have the single day on 21st available if anyone wants it ;-) ... otherwise I'll be using that day to prepare for all the behind-the-scenes we'll be doing in our quiet season which lasts from that point until the second week in January. Except we've already got bookings to start on 4th January ...

The first public courses in the New Year are a Regular Expression Day on 7th January followed by a Java Bootcamp, from Tuesday 8th January.

For those of you who have been following my training trip to Slovenia here on the last week - we got back at a quarter to one this morning. And the courses shown above all run in Melksham, UK and not Ljubljana, Slovenia!

Ljubljana, Town Hall

Melksham, Town Hall

Perhaps not so different as you might imagine!
