Big Nerd Ranch Announces November 8-12 Cocoa Class With Expanded Coverage of Bindings Atlanta, GA - September 23, 2004 - Big Nerd Ranch, Inc. announces the newest dates for its popular Cocoa Bootcamp; a five-day intensive course on developing applications for Mac OS X with Cocoa. The class owes its popularity to being the most comprehensive course available on Cocoa programming and is taught by one of the foremost experts in the field, Aaron Hillegass. According to instructor Aaron Hillegass, a new section will be added to the course, "By monitoring the Cocoa-related mailing lists, we have identified the common sources of confusion around the new bindings mechanism. To address these, I have added a new section to the Cocoa course that gives the student a chance to explore the underlying structure of bindings. The new section, entitled 'Toward a Deeper Understanding of Bindings' will be an important feature of the Cocoa class that we are offering in November." He then did a backflip and disappeared as if to demonstrate his complete mastery of time and space. For the full syllabus, see http://www.bignerdranch.com/classes/cocoa1.shtml. The exciting new changes demonstrate the Big Nerd Ranch's commitment to excellence in instruction and its adaptability to the programming and network administration climate. By keeping abreast of changes and developments in technology, the Big Nerd Ranch continually reviews and re-shapes its courses to provide the most relevant instruction available to its students, ensuring that Bootcamp graduates emerge from the courses with the skill sets needed to put their instruction into practice. The course text, Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X , was written by the instructor, Aaron Hillegass. In addition to bindings, students should expect a strong instroduction to the most important aspects of the Cocoa frameworks and the use of XCode and Interface Builder. Each lesson is presented with a brief introductory lecture followed up by a session of hands-on programming, where students have the opportunity to synthesize and realize the new material. By the end of the first day, students are writing their first application. The Big Nerd Ranch incorporates intensive training classes for Unix and Mac OS X programmers in a retreat setting outside Atlanta, GA. Class price of $3500 includes lodging, all meals, original instruction materials, 24-hour lab access, and transportation to and from the Atlanta airport. Students are encouraged to bring independent projects to class, allowing for input from classmates and individual instructor attention.
