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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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

If I'm training on MySQL or PHP, I'll often come up with an example in front of the class - it's much more effective training to see HOW an answer is reached than to simply be presented with a pre-written example. And so it was yesterday that I wrote a small application to extract data from tables and display it ... with checkboxes provided to allow a filtering out on subsequent refreshes of the page to help supposed used display selectively what they require.

If the application sounds like the sort of thing you need, you can see the PHP / MySQL (HTML too) code here. You can try out the application here - yes, it is on our live server (the only change being account names and passwords!). And you can come along and learn php or MySQL on our public (open) courses where you'll be in the company of a handful of other people from different oranisations to bounce your ideas off, or book a private course at our centre which can be even more closely tailored to your needs. If you have a group of six or more delegates, we can also run a private course at your offices - that cuts out your staff travel and means they can sleep in their own beds and catch up on a little urgent work at the very start or very end of the day.

Our next public PHP course starts on Tuesday, 15th April 2008 and as I write we have space for three more delegates on the course and at our training centre / hotel. If you're reading this after that date has passed, look at our diary of upcoming courses for current / new dates - these course run quite regularly!
