New workshop for September 25 — Beginning Ruby on Rails

Maintaining what has become a tra­di­tion, we have a late addi­tion to the Web Directions South Workshop pro­gram for this year: Dr Nic Williams will be host­ing Beginning Ruby on Rails on Tuesday September 25.

Anyone involved with the web would be aware of the phe­nom­e­nal growth in pop­u­lar­ity over the last sev­eral years of this full-​​featured, industrial-​​strength frame­work for build­ing web applications.

The really good news for devel­op­ers who are keen to give it a go is that it is very fast to learn and get started. Useful web apps can be devel­oped after one or two days of edu­ca­tion. This work­shop is an out­stand­ing oppor­tu­nity to get that edu­ca­tion right here in Australia with one of the most well respected mem­bers of the Ruby on Rails com­mu­nity, Dr Nic Williams.

The full day work­shop will be per­fect for any­one who has a desire to find out more about Ruby on Rails, and put it into practice.

If you have

  • basic pro­gram­ming skills in any language
  • an under­stand­ing of object-​​orientation
  • knowl­edge of data­base design and access using SQL

then don’t miss this chance to par­tic­i­pate in an enlight­en­ing, prac­ti­cal day that will stand you in good stead as you move deeper into devel­op­ing apps with this new framework.

Beginning Ruby on Rails is priced very rea­son­ably at $395 for con­fer­ence atten­dees, or atten­dees of another work­shop, $495 standalone.

If you are already attend­ing the con­fer­ence or another work­shop, just reg­is­ter for this new one with the same address and the dis­count will be applied auto­mat­i­cally. And please do get in touch if you would like to swap into Beginning Ruby on Rails from another work­shop, as this can be arranged, no problem.

  1. I’ve seen Nic present in the past and he knows his stuff and presents in a very inter­est­ing way. This would be a great intro to Rails for any­one think­ing about using it on a project or get­ting up to speed once Rails has been selected as your appli­ca­tion devel­op­ment solution.
