On-Site Training

On-Site Training

We've had the pleasure of helping over 2,500 individual developers learn new skills in our public training courses, and we've taught over 50 teams in private courses. We'd love to help your team get up to speed on new tools and techniques in a private course, too!

You get the same popular curriculum and expert instruction as in our public courses, but taught in a private team setting on site at your location.

Learn directly from the experts in a confidential setting where you can ask project-specific questions
Quickly get everyone on your team up to speed on the latest development tools and techniques
Schedule a private course around your timeframe and initiatives

We think our Studios offer the best developer training around. But don't take our word for it. Just ask our students and clients. Check out their reviews and the applications they've built!

Who's It For?

Teams of 5+ Programmers. For teams of five or more developers, scheduling an on-site course may be more economical than sending large teams to our public courses. Some courses assume more experience than others. We're happy to help you choose which course is best suited for the skill level of your team.

“Most of our team has been through one (or is scheduled for one) and it really makes a difference in our team performance.”

—Jonathan Siegel

What Do I Need?

These courses are taught on site at your location. You'll need the following:

a room to comfortably accommodate your team
a laptop projector and screen
a whiteboard (or flipchart) with markers
laptops (or desktops) for each attendee

Reviews

“Everyone came back very excited about the possibility of developing Rails apps. I had people running over to my office during the workshop lunch breaks to talk, and we've already set about identifying a couple initial directions for developing production-grade applications. At least 3 people separately told me it was one of the best training they've been to.” — Gregg Hartling
“I truly enjoyed the course, learned a lot in that interactive setting, and I'm extremely motivated to start building killer Rails applications. The course simply had a GREAT balance of theory and practical application to enforce the learning of the material.” — Conrad Taylor
“Loved the class—good pace, covered a wide variety of material. I would definitely do it again and recommend it to others.” — Jason Mark
“The instructors were cheerful, passionate, and honest. I appreciate their effort to keep the class fun and interesting. They admitted to shortcomings and didn't try to push dogma. The atmosphere of the class was very conducive to asking questions.” —Anthony Carlos
“Chad is really awesome! After learning about his background, it's really surprising how we could get ahold of him to do the training. Truly an executive class training!” —Kiran Raya, IDT Corporation
“I was quite apprehensive at first as I was not looking forward to a class that would teach just Ruby and/or Rails syntax or show how to develop applications (like do this, then do that etc.). However, I was quite happy to see that Chad dealt with the nuts and bolts that make ROR work and the reason behind why what is done has to be done, including best practices and alternatives.” —Manan Patel, IDT Corporation
