I’ve been here for over a year now and thought I’d push my luck with the boss and ask if I could get some training to further my knowledge. Originally I thought about some SEO training with Aaron Wall, but at £600 a month and my (no doubt) considerable knowledge and experience in SEO, I was hesitant to spend so much when I know i’ll just end up sifting through the course notes looking for a golden grain of insight that in all reality isn’t there… instead, thanks to a suggestion by the boss I’m getting some training in PHP which could come in handy as I’m constantly frustrated with our existing systems and would love to jump in and fix the issues and make improvements (not that the nice people at Bronco aren’t helpful – its just I know these are quick things to fix if you know what you’re looking at).
I searched nationwide looking for in-office, remote study and local in-person training and finally settled with NTI in Leeds. To be honest the clincher was the 60% Government funded reduction in the original £600 fee for the three day course bringing it down to a much more Yorkshire man friendly £240.
The course uses the Open Source ZEND application suite and is called ZEND PHP I: Foundation.
I’m booked in for the 7th July over at their facilities in Leeds which could be the filler for the hole in my ‘universal’ online marketing and design skillset.
…next stop, WORLD DOMINATION MWAHAHAHAHA!
Whats the name of the course title? I have been looking at some of their courses the pay only 40% is brilliant. I was also interested in the wordpress course – re skinning etc , but need to know some PHP me thinks
it was zens php foundations
Was it any good? Worth the money?
Yes the discount is amazing and i now know a lot more about whats going on. It also translates really well to javascript as the principles are the same. dont expect to know much about mysql or anything like that as they try and up sell you onto other courses.
