360Flexpress Hands-On Training

Learn what it takes to get hired!

360Flexpress – Saturday Wrap up and Sunday Agenda

Day one of the training was loads of fun.  We accomplished a lot.  For those of you that missed out, it’s a shame.  We learned some great skills to apply to our Flex dev work.  Here’s a link to a zip file.  It contains the “backup” of our original POC mxml file as well as [...]

360flexpress Hands-On – Getting down to the wire for great training!

Some of you may be wondering what type of application your gonna build this weekend. While the application can’t be too complex since we only have a weekend, we also want to keep it relevant enough to teach you some great skills.

One thing I’ve never liked about a lot of training out there is that while you build pieces of an app, you don’t build the whole thing. There’s always things skipped, code prewritten for you, so you never get that continuous feel of going from nothing to finished product. That will not be the case here.

Great goodies from Apress and great content!

We’re hard at work making the two days of 360|Flexpress the best hands-on Training you’re gonna find… anywhere.

I know, as if there was ever any question, HOWEVER we want to make sure everyone knows it.

Whether you’re new to Flex, or have a little experience and want to “Level Up”, Saturday is the day for you. Tom has been working with Flex since Flex 1.5, I know I was there working with him. We’ve got stories, oh yes, we do.

Saturday is all Flex 101, Hands-On. Bring your laptop, a power cord, and be ready to learn.

Sunday we’re offering some choices. Tom, Keith and Harry will be each holding talks on some of the major frameworks in the Flex developer world, Mate, Cairngorm, and PureMVC.

We’ve got a room for each, so once you’ve spent the day Saturday learning the in’s and outs of Flex, you’ll be able to learn about the most common frameworks in use by Flex developers.

After all, part of this training’s goal is to get folks the Flex skills they need to get a job, or a better job!

Register now! $149 for 2 solid days of Flex hands-on training! You won’t find a better deal!

The plan for Day 1 of 360|Flexpress

When I managed Silvafug, there was always a common need: Get new Flex developers up to speed so they can get hired (or excel in a new role as Flex developer).  In order to do that, you need to teach skills beyond just the technical (“This is a var”). You need to teach people how [...]

360Flexpress – Sunday Adv Training!

Thomas will be spending the entire day Sunday going over advanced MVC topics, including

Explore the FlexStore code with pre- and post-MVC usages.
Present best practices and “danger” areas when using Cairngorm,
and (if time allows)… explore the CGX add-ons for event scheduling, custom events, callbacks, delegate factories, etc.
Don’t worry, if you’re not sure if Cairngorm is for you, or even if you’re sure it IS NOT for you. Thomas’ session will be worth it. You’ll elevate your game no matter your position on Cairngorm.
