Hi everyone --

I'm going to be teaching a four-day Rails workshop in Alexandria, Virginia, USA, October 17-20, for the training company Accelebrate (http://www.accelebrate.com). The workshop takes you from the foundations of Ruby and Rails, through to a solid working, practical knowledge of both.

This course is appropriate for computer/programming-savvy Rails beginners, and for people who have done some Ruby and Rails but want to clear the cobwebs and learn it systematically.

If you're interested, you can find detailed information at: http://www.accelebrate.com/contact/ror_registration.asp. Or contact me privately if you have any questions.

(And yes, it does overlap for one day with RubyConf. I'm probably not going to make it to RubyConf -- but that's another story.)

The price for one person is too expensive. The workshop is during weekdays which makes it difficult to attend. I would rather bring my own laptop and work on it than working on the PCs provided by the training center. So Internet connection must be provided for laptops.

Why not use bleeding edge technologies to learn Ruby and Rails? How about a Webinar series (webcam/chat etc)? Something like 5 hours per week for 20 weeks. Structured sessions with interaction with students via chat? Is it possible?
