New Cities and New Courses
New Cities and New Courses
January 12, 2012

My company, AgiliTrain, has created its spring schedule and we are happy to announce that we’re going to be expanding with new courses and new cities. Let’s take the courses first.

After much consideration, it seems to me that 2012 is going to be all about XAML *and* HTML5/JavaScript. With this in mind we’re focusing on our two new courses:

ASP.NET MVC 3, HTML5 and jQuery Course

This course is about teaching developers how to build their next generation of web sites. The course includes coverage of:

  • ASP.NET MVC 3
  • jQuery and jQuery UI
  • KnockoutJS
  • CSS3 (including using LESS)
  • HTML5
  • Using Shims and Polyfills for graceful downgrade to older browsers
  • Architecting your JavaScript

Web Development for XAML Devs

This new course focuses on taking the skills of existing XAML developers and migrating them to the web. This course includes:

  • Comparison of XAML with the HTML/CSS stack
  • Structuring JavaScript for Web Sites
  • Data Binding with KnockoutJS
  • Using MVVM on the web

New Cities

In addition to new courses, we’re also expanding our lineup to include several new cities this year:

  • St. Louis, MO
  • Boise, ID
  • Phoenix, AZ

Our upcoming schedule of courses includes:

Hope to see you at one of our events!
