Damian Conway is presenting some seminars in Kirkland, WA (near Seattle). Seats are still available.
Mon-Tue 7/15-16/2002 Advanced OO Perl Wed 7/17/2002 Advanced Module Implementation Techniques Thu 7/18/2002 Programming Perl 6 As a Perl trainer, I have learned as much from watching Damian's teaching style as I have from absorbing the content. And that's quite a bit. Because I'm usually in the front of the training room, I appreciate an opportunity to observe other trainers plying their craft. I'll even attend a seminar where the content isn't particularly interesting for the opportunity to observe another trainer's delivery style. But I *do* find Damian's content interesting. I've been amazed at the number of simultaneous channels Damian works -- beginner, intermediate, manager, hacker, punster, computer scientist, mad scientist.... Like a fugue, you can listen to the basic theme, but upon deeper inspection, there's a lot more going on. I've had an opportunity to hear some of his talks a second time, and when I have, I've observed and interviewed some audience members. Everyone gets something -- neophyte, hacker, old timer, even the (non-Perlish) wife of a collegue. I have been inspired by his teaching style, and learned much about training by attending his presentations. And I've learned a lot about Perl, too. Because there are still seats available for next week's seminars, I have been authorized by Tim Maher (whose company, Consultix, is sponsoring these seminars) to announce a special price -- $350/day ($200/day off the already great price). Repeat -- $350/day. For a Damian Seminar. I call that a great value. As Perl trainers, you'll recognize what a great value that is when you compare it to what the students in your class typically pay per day. Come learn something about training as you learn a lot about Perl. So, if you'd like to attend, act fast, follow the registration directions, then sit back and enjoy the seminar.
