From Vinny Coyne, loyal member of XCake, an announcement of his new iPhone Course:
Just a quick announcement that I will be teaching a beginners course in iPhone Development in Newlands Cross, Dublin from 21st to 25th September inclusive. We are also running a competition for two places in the course.
The course will be a healthy mix of theory and lab coding exercises. I’ll be going into the fundamentals of Objective-C and the iPhone SDK, as well as a peek at some of the more complex aspects of iPhone apps.
By the end of the course, candidates will be able to create their own iPhone apps which make the most of the platform’s features (such as location-based services, Google Maps integration, accelerometer functions, web-connectivity, etc) and sell them on the Apple App Store to millions of iPhone & iPod touch users.
Candidates should have experience with at least one object-oriented programming language before attending. Also, an Intel-based MacBook with the iPhone SDK installed will be required. MacBooks can also be rented for the week for an additional fee.
For more information, see iPhone Apps Ireland or download the PDF brochure here.
We’re also running a competition to give away two places at the course for two people currently unemployed.
Register ASAP before you miss your opportunity.
I’ve also been speaking to Vinny about the need for an iPhone course in Belfast. Who’s up for attending that?
Hi, I have used your apps in the past. Nice! Just got a mac and need to learn for work. So I’m keen to do something. Cheers, John.
