Quotes from Students

Wow! So much information to digest in two days. The Training Manual will be a good resource for us in the coming months.

- S.H., Software Engineer, Sybase

The way the course was sectioned out flowed nicely. The classfiles in htdocs flowed perfectly with the manual. The material was relevant and presented in a clear manner.

The material was very well organized. I was able to catch up on languages I wasn't as much of an expert in (XML, Javascript), and then apply that to the greater goal (Ajax).

The materials, excercises, and class were perfect for me.

- R.L., Johnson & Johnson
