php training
All that I know about PHP, I’ve learned from tweaking my wordpress blogs. I’m amazed when people use PHP to create things from scratch - I simply don’t know enough about it to be able to do something like that. PHP training isn’t something I need for work either, so the chances of the company paying for me to learn it are slim, but the Open Technology group also offers MySql training, and that IS something I can apply at work. The instructors have great qualifications, like being Oracle Certified DBA’s (hey, I work with a few of those guys!) and you have the option of going to their site for training, or having it at your office (provided you have a group of 4 or more)
There’s even an advanced Excel course, and speaking as someone who is staring at a spreadsheet right now, containing over 25,000 rows of data, I’m all about learning how to use that better, and make what I do quicker and easier.
I’d imaging that with a little PHP training you could even pick up some freelance work, catering to those of us who don’t know what the heck we’re doing.
How neat, I learned PHP from tweaking forums and blog software, and then got to use it at work too! PHP is awesome. I do need to learn more…
I wish my company offered php training or any other type of training that would give me extra experience. It’s funny.. I’m the same: I’m learning php through my personal work with blogs, forums, and basic includes etc. I am learning a little bit more now with some of our new projects at my job. But, I sure wish I could get some official training!
