If you’ve been to 360|Flex before you know we offer hands-on training the day before the conference (Sunday) at no charge. We’re mixing things up a bit this year. We’re offering a full day of Robotlegs 2 hands-on, plus a full day of FMS 4.5 with Flex apps. Learn how to leverage the power of the Flash Media Server in your apps.
Both of those are free of charge. Just show up on Sunday and grab a seat, the classes are first come first served.
In addition to those two full day classes we’ve got
“Mobile development with Flash Builder 4.6” where you’ll learn to build iOS, and android apps in Flex and compile them to their native platforms. This class is only $100 and seating is limited.
We’ve also go the hugely popular (packed room last year) “Arduino Hands On” which is only $145 and includes an awesome Sparkfun inventor kit (A $100 value) for everyone in the class. Seating for this class is also limited.
We decided to offer these classes for a small fee because we wanted to offer a smaller more in depth class that offered a huge benefit to those in the room. By limiting the size we can insure that the instructors aren’t tied up answering questions that slow down the learning. Both of these courses are structured like more traditional hands-on training that you’d normally pay much much more for.
When we decided to try the paid pre-conference training we wanted to make sure to stay true to our roots of not charging too much to attendees, and making it more than just a simple money grab like most conferences. To start we priced the training pretty cheap, which is how we price everything :) and we’re splitting the proceeds from sunday training with the instructors.
Seats are selling pretty quick but there’s still room left. Act fast. Get your 360|Flex 2012 ticket and your hands-on training seat now before both are sold out!
