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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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))
Public courses - Autumn 2014 and 2015

Our public courses for 2015 are already in place and booking ... and indeed they're already running this Autumn.

If you're new to computer programming, or very rusty and want a course that includes revision of the basics, book on one of our five day "Learning to program in Xxxxxx" courses.

If you're an experienced programmer, book instead on a four day "Xxxxxx programming" course and we'll teach you the new language of your choice and help you appreciate how it differs from the language(s) you already know.

The languages we're teaching in this way are C++, Tcl, Perl, Python, Ruby, Lua and PHP

Newcomers to programming arrive with us on Sunday evening or Monday morning - for a course starting at 09:30 (we'll pick you up from the station off the 09:15 arrival, or on Sunday evening, and we have plenty of parking). Monday is spent covering programming principles, but covering them with examples and exercises in the langauage that we're teaching that week. Experienced programmers arrive on the Monday evening, or early on Tuesday, and join the group who were with us on Monday. The teaching from Tuesday morning takes a further look at the basics of the language we're teaching, but this time in a more technical way that gives the newcomers who were with us on Monday and second and more thorough view, and the new Tuesday arrivals a technical insight as to how and why Xxxxxx differs from languages they're already experienced in.

The courses run daily during the week from 9 to 5 each day (formally), although the tutor will be available from earlier until later if you've got question, and you'll have access to the training room / systems / library / networks 24 hours a day if you want. We have high quality rooms for delegates coming from 'out of town' who wish to stay overnight - indeed, we're currently rated No. 1 out of 15 on Trip Advisor for Melksham accommodation; you can book that with your course, or independently. If your company has a policy of always using one particular chain, that's fine by us too; most chains are in Bath, about 12 miles away, and some are closer such as Premier Inn in Chippenham, Travellodge in Devizes and Best Western in Bradford-on-Avon.

On the final day of the course, we finish a little earlier, email all the examples delegates and the tutor have written on our systems through to them (you're also welcome to use your own laptop for the course), and we'll offer you a list to the station to catch the 4:30 train home. But that's not the end of it; you're welcome to email any questions through after the course, and pop in (with prior arrangement, please) for another few hours to review / look at any issues that have come up later. And our rooms will be available to you at future dates at delegate rates.

In addition to the programming courses, we're also offering a 2 day Apache httpd and Tomcat course to a regular schedule through the year. Start times and admin are very much the same as for our programming courses. Other courses that we have scheduled regularly in the past remain available to be run as required - and we will schedule an extra run for just a single delegate if need be. That's a much neater way to handle advanced and intermediate training requirements, which vary from person to person. Please ASK if you want a tailored intermediate / advanced / specific course on C or C++, Tcl, Expect, Tk, Perl, Python and Django, Ruby and Rails, lua, linux and PHP

As well as our public courses, we run private courses - to the agendas listed above, or tailored to meet individual client company needs. Those courses can run at our training centre [detail], or on customer site [detail]. Please take a look at those pages, and / or get in touch to let us know about your particular needs. As a direct comparison, if you have 4 or more delegates to be trained on the same subject at teh same time, a private course will cost less. Indirectly, a private course cutting out topics not relevant to your organisation and targetterd at a single appication may save you a day, and having me come to use will reduce multiple sets of expenses to juts a single set - the tutors. For as few as three people, then, you may end up with a better course at a cheaper price by going private.
