Atlanta, GA - October 28, 2005 - Link Up the Newest Installment of PHP 5 Bootcamp at the Big Nerd Ranch - January 30-February 3, 2006
Big Nerd Ranch announces the next iteration of PHP 5 Bootcamp for January 30 - February 3, 2006. The new class will be under the leadership of instructor Mark Fenoglio, the most recent addition to the Big Nerd Ranch's stellar lineup of top-notch instructors. The five-day intensive class covers the ins and outs of PHP 5 development: developing mastery in using PHP to build modular websites and applications, understanding how PHP complements other web technologies such as CSS, XML and PDF, managing users and implementing rights hierarchies, and creating web services. Students attending the class should be prepared to work hard while immersing themselves in one of the most popular and exciting emerging technologies in the industry.
PHP 5 Bootcamp at the Big Nerd Ranch provides the ideal learning environment for system administrators, webmasters and web application developers seeking a dynamic and robust solution to their web-based database needs. PHP is a flexible scripting language that adapts to a variety of project needs, with the ability to immediately put learning into practice upon completion of the course. The course itself is specifically geared to developers and project managers already familiar with scripting in HTML, WYSIWYG experts looking to break out of template-based web development and veteran scripting developers seeking inclusion of PHP in their skill-set.
"Bringing quality talent like Mark Fenoglio onto our team really marks a new level of excellence at the Big Nerd Ranch," commented Aaron Hillegass, Big Nerd Ranch founder. "We are committed to bringing together students with a hunger to learn with instructors with the passion, vision, and experience necessary to create a perfect learning environment. Mark is an avatar of that vision. Having his knowledge and experience leading a class like PHP 5 Bootcamp, one of our most popular classes, makes manifest the Big Nerd Ranch teaching philosophy."
Mark will guide students through the fundamentals of the PHP language, covering variables and constants, arrays, control structures and functions. Building on those basic principles, students will be engaged in building dynamic websites with an overview of web forms and email, scripting libraries, relational databases, and editing and publishing content. Security issues, as well, will be covered from basic functionalities as users and passwords, to cookies, session variables and design and interface challenges. Students will also cover advanced level issues such as integrating PHP 5 with CSS, XML, images, and PDFs.
