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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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

Well House Consultants module G303
During the course
Resources from the web site of Well House Consultants on the subject of During the course. We provide open source training course and business hotel accommodation in Melksham, Wiltshire, England
Background Courses usually run from 09:00 on the first day
to 17:00 on most days (finish by 16:45 on the last day).
Outside those hours, you've welcome to use the library
and customer lounge, continue with your practicals or
check your email in the training room, and ask your tutor and
our other staff questions if you wish. Staff are on
duty from 06:30 in the morning until the evening, and
if you're staying with us your room card will get you
into the training room in the middle of the night if
you REALLY want to (but most delegates just take our
laptops up to their rooms!) Longer articles related to this subject Moving up a class

Ten years ago, we always provided equipment for delegates to use during courses.

It's also about selecting which parts of that subject are relevant to your current audience, and passing on that knowledge to them in a way which makes them understand it, be motivated by it, retain it, and make good ongoing use of it"

It was such a lovely day that we walked to the "West End" for lunch - that's Melksham's West End pub, and not the West End of London. The pub, a member of the "Hungry Horse" chain (Greene King, Bury St Edmunds) has recently been refurbished. ... | 2011-04-07 | 2560 | Training comparison to QA Training, Learning Tree, GB Direct.

No - we don't, but many technical people in Finland and France, in the Netherlands and Denmark have English as an excellent second language and can gainfully take our courses - especially those courses which are so niche that there is no alternative ... | 2009-08-12 (longest) | 1035 | Longer hours and better value courses Last year, we started at a quarter to ten on the first day of our courses, and ended at about half past four on the last day.

We've been open and running as a hotel now for a year, and - more and more - our public courses aren't just 9 to 5 events. Rather they're a chance to share ... | 2007-11-04 | 1363 | One computer per delegate, or pair programming? We provide one laptop computer per delegate during our courses, and we're proud to do so - such a scheme works well for the majority of most of our programming courses, with each individual from his / her own company having practical coding exprience during the course.
