Hi All, I'm happy to announce that we've had our first 3 candidates complete the free Perl course. All beginners to Perl. I managed to squeeze it into 2 days, 10-5. The idea of the course is to give people an introduction to Perl and give them the resources and knowledge they need to continue learning by themselves.
All in all I think the course went smoothly and the candidates went away quite stimulated to learn more Perl, and able to see how it could help them in what they want to achieve. Following this experience I think it'll be good to have another 1 day top up and guidance course a month or so after the first course. Going trough it all has reminded me just how much there is to Perl, it's a lot to remember. I think it's best if people practice what they have learnt over the free 2 day course in their own time, rather than trying to teach more straight away. After all this is a course for absolute beginners and not programmers experienced in other languages. I know the students have now joined this list. If you'd like to introduce yourselves feel free ;) Lyle _______________________________________________ BristolBathPM mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.bristolbath.org/mailman/listinfo/bristolbathpm
