Top-notch Ruby on Rails training - extremely low price - Edinburgh, March 25th.

The Scottish Ruby conference is long sold-out but there are still a few spots for locals to get some world-class Ruby on Rails training ... really cheap.

 

My recommendation: even if you can't get your boss to pay for this, take holidays and pay the £75 from your own pocket.  If you are inquisitive and into coding then you'd be made to miss this.

Being both rapid and test-driven, Ruby on Rails is very much an Agile framework in an Agile language.  Popular with start-ups and gaining traction in The Enterprise, demand for Rails programmers is growing.  The Scottish Ruby Conference charity tutorial is a great and affordable opportunity to bootstrap your Ruby skills: for a full day's Ruby tuition all that is asked is a £75 donation to the Children's Hospice Association Scotland.

 

The  introductory course is being run by experienced Rubyist, Keavy McMinn for those new to Ruby and/or Rails. This covers the getting an application up and running, as well as going beyond the basics into adding more advanced features like Ajax.

 

For those who are currently familiar with Rails, Joe O'Brien will be running a refactoring workshop.  Taking a poorly written code-base, participants will learn to identify various code smells, and how to transform ugly code into beautiful code by applying standard refactorings.
