class on Wednesday, March 25 and Thursday, March 26) including:

   - 2 tracks on Introduciton to Python
   - Working with Excel
spreadsheetshttp://us.pycon.org/2009/tutorials/schedule/1AM8/
   - GIS with Python http://us.pycon.org/2009/tutorials/schedule/1PM4/
   - Django http://us.pycon.org/2009/tutorials/schedule/1PM2/
   - Concurrency http://us.pycon.org/2009/tutorials/schedule/1PM6/ and
   Kamaelia http://us.pycon.org/2009/tutorials/schedule/1AM7/
   - Testing http://us.pycon.org/2009/tutorials/schedule/2AM2/
   - SQLAlchemy http://us.pycon.org/2009/tutorials/schedule/2AM4/
   - Advanced topics
   http://us.pycon.org/2009/tutorials/schedule/
   - much, much more http://us.pycon.org/2009/tutorials/schedule/

These classes are being presented by some of the smartest cookies in the
Python community and are 3-hours each (with break).  You get to rub
shoulders with other Python programmers who share your interests and all
sessions have time for you to ask questions.  There is a (modest) cost to
attend, but you will get great training as well as class notes.  We even
feed you lunch and provide snacks during the breaks.
