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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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

We're constantly striving to improve our courses. Already, the majority of our trainees already arrive with us through the recommendation of others, and we're kept plenty busy ... so we must be doing something right. That's not to say that we can't make things even better / have things run even smoother as we fine-tune our product. There's also very much the need to keep up to date with changing languages and logistics.

If you want a Perl course in the City of London, a Python course in the West End, or a PHP course just off Oxford Street, we can help. You provide a room and the students, and we'll do the rest - we provide laptop computers for each trainee to use, tutor (and a knoweledgable one - the guy who actually wrote the course!), notes, servers ... all we ask you to provide is a room and the students. If you've three or more trainees who need the same course at the same time, a private course such as this makes economic sense.

Of the subjects listed above, Python (and to a lesser extent Perl) are often taught to larger groups, but sometimes (usually in the case of PHP!) you won't have enough trainees to justify a private course. We also run regular scheduled public courses on all of our subjects at Melksham in Wiltshire. From London, take the 07:45 from Paddington on the first morning of the course and we'll collect you from Melksham station. At the end of the course, your train is scheduled to be back in Paddington at a quarter to seven.

I started this piece talking about improvements even on a product that's already pretty d**ned good. What have I to report? A new logisitical setup for on site courses in London - we no longer have any issue with parking as we'll now arrive about an hour before the course starts on the first morning, by taxi. Even last week in the immediate aftermath of the bombs of the previous week, the scheme worked well - a "test under fire" you could call it ... and we anticipate that the systems now in place will allow us to continue to present excellent, reliable, fresh courses for you as things get progressively busier and a little more chaotic in town as the Olympics of 2012, with all the infrastucture work that implies, draws closer.
