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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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

On Site courses
Resources from the web site of Well House Consultants on the subject of On Site courses. We provide open source training course and business hotel accommodation in Melksham, Wiltshire, England

Background
We'll run private courses at your offices wherever they are in the UK and Ireland. If you're located elsewhere in the EU, we can also run a longer course at your office (it's not worth us travelling for 1 or 2 days). You don't pay for the tutor's travel time - just travel expenses based on a formula that's built in to our web site quotation system ... and we bring a workstation for each trainee to use, notes, projector, books, .... you just provide a room and the students and we'll be set up and running within ah hour of arriving on the first morning.

4739A year of changes for Lisa and Graham Ellis, and Well House
Our IT training business has been running at Well House Manor (48 Spa Road) since 2006, and during that time has grown in all sorts of unexpected directions - into a guest house, an event venue for outside customers, a museum, and a base for the local Community Rail Partnership.

4602Training course and hotel room prices - 2016
Happy New Year - for 2016! Each New Year, we review our prices and products - they do need to be checked / updated from time to time, and this is the time of year when we have fewest outstanding quotations in people's systems. The good news for 2016 is that prices are unchanged from 2015. Our public ...

4132Using your own laptop on our courses - now even easier!
Ten years ago, we always provided equipment for delegates to use during courses. Delegates had their own desktop systems at work for the most part, and moving those into a training room was impractical. But times have changes, and more often than not these days - for programming courses such as Python ...

395010 reasons why I travel the night before a course starts
I have a London meeting at 09:30, and traveling up by train it should be routine, straightforward, worry-free. I would love to have got a bus to the station at - say - 06:50, catch the 07:20 train, change at Swindon and be in London at 08:50 and then catch the tube - 09:15 arrival just a few minutes ...

3898The course must go on - improvements to tutor travel plans, with immediate effect
The roads get busier ... and a journey of 50 miles that the AA route planner estimated at 80 minutes took me 110 this morning. At current traffic levels, perhaps a bypass is needed for the Chippenham bypass? As I drove towards Corston, in the middle of the countryside the traffic dropped ...

3715Changing face - Filton
When I moved to the South West of England, in 1980, it was to look after the supply of computer graphics products to major customers in the Bristol area, Yeovil, and further west. Half a lifetime later, so much has changed; this evening, I walked past a site which I visited from time to time those 30 ...

3131Lua, Tcl, Python; Worldwide training classes
The subjects we teach are used worldwide - there's just as much requirement to learn about Python in Salerno as there is in Swindon, about Tcl in Milwaukee as there is in Manchester, and about Lua in Buffalo as there is in Birmingham. But subjects like Lua are "niche", and the training volume simply ...

2956On site course - travel and accommodation expenses
Should we charge our customers when we go on site for our journey to them, and the costs of staying over if need be? In common with our industry's standard, we do charge; when you think about it, that's sensible - otherwise our local customers would be subsidizing people who are based a long way away. ...

"Can't wait to hear how you're getting on". "Keeping an eye on your blog". A couple of messages from folks wondering how I'm getting on with my Lua course in Guadalajara, Mexico, this week. The answer will be brief. I'm enjoying the course, the delegates are getting a lot from it (THAT is the ...

2810A course review - for the tutor to complete
A Course is for the delegates .... but it's really nice if the tutor gets a little out of it too. And usually I do! I run private courses at Company's offices on a regular basis - about 30% of my teaching time is on the road. I always ask my delegates to complete course evaluation forms as they provide ...

The slight young girl, perhaps aged about 17, was dressed in army fatigues. She waved her automatic rifle at me and ordered me to move away from my car. I did as ordered, without any hesitation.

Back in the saddle again." First course of the New Year ... done, run and I love it! Lining up the systems to ...
