They didn't treat Java as 2nd class. But those of us with lots of programming experience got NO response from employers after taking the Intermediate Java class. So, why bother?
Of course, that also held true for SAS, C#,... etc. It's only $145, but the classes have been worth $0 to almost all of us who have been through TechEngage I and II... Following up with Volunteer programming (when we could find it) hasn't helped either... Great premise, excellent courses in a short period of time, but getting us in doors... no way. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Erik Hatcher" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Research Triangle Java User's Group mailing list." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2004 11:16 PM Subject: Re: [Juglist] TechEngage III > On Feb 26, 2004, at 11:04 PM, Don Brady wrote: > >> > >> David M.
