PHP Training

We are offering two training PHP courses in January 2001 (dates are not finalized yet).

The following is a breakdown of the courses and topics:

Intro to PHP

  • PHP background/history
  • PHP benefits/uses
  • Understanding a web server request/ PHP parsing
  • Variable usage/syntax
  • Forms
  • Cookies
  • Database connectivity
  • Email
Prerequistes: You will need a rudimentary knowledge of programming (understand what a variable is, IF conditionals, etc.) No knowledge of PHP is required, although basic knowledge of the web/internet/HTML is helpful as well.

The class will involve hands on instruction/code covering the above topics, with a final project of a working form submission with results saved to a database.

Advanced PHP

  • Objects
  • Templates
  • Application framework setup
  • Database abstraction
  • Session handling
Prerequistes: You will need a working knowledge of PHP (we recommend that you've used PHP for at least a few months, or have a good programming background already). and some understanding of databases.

The class will involve hands on instruction/code covering the above topics, with a final project of a working "shopping cart" project.
The 'Intro' course is $495 and lasts 2 days. The 'Advanced' course is $795 and lasts 3 days. Lunch will be provided during all courses. Our facilities are located in Ann Arbor, Michigan (yes, it'll be cold then - sorry!)

Attendees of either course will receive one month of free email support.

Comments/questions
OK, you've read this far. You might be wondering - "why a training course?".

Basically, it's one of those things that keeps coming up on the mailing list, and we figured it was time someone did this. Many people learn PHP from books, mailing list archives, web site tutorials, and other places. That's great, but it's not always enough for some people.

It's been our experience that for some people, there's no substitute for real 'one on one' human interaction when learning a topic. Often topics that seem extremely confusing when read from a website screen can 'click' faster with some back and forth dialogue. Furthermore, many sources simply give you 'here's how to do it'. Our programming experience include years of PHP, Java and ASP, so we can easily relate programming concepts from another platform to PHP, further speeding up your learning process.

In short, our courses may not be for everyone, but no single source is. Should you have any questions about the particulars of our course(s), please use the inquiry form above and someone will contact you with clarification as soon as possible.

Thanks!
