Cameron Laird's personal notes on Python training (original) (raw)

At of November 2005, I like to think that thepertinent Python Wiki page will maintain better than I can the information notionally on this page. I've retained, for now, the most recent version of what I had, though:

Until a neutral and more obvious "community" site, such aswww.python.org, indexes known Python trainers, I'll maintain this page. I welcome updates, comments, and so on, of course.

Among the trainers I have encountered are:

• Author and full-time trainerMark Lutz.
• Author and university lecturer Wesley Chun offers corporate training through hiscyberweb.consulting Silicon Valley-based consultancy.
• Staffers at ActiveState Corporation, although I haven't yet figured out if they have a definite training schedule, apart from the oneDavid Ascher promotes under his own name.
• Gary Herron of Island Training Solutions.
• Steve Holden of Holden Web LLC/Ltd offers "one-day 'Python for Programmers' seminars and tailored training for small groups", mostly in the UK.
• Secret Labs trains in association with Klosterdata, mainly for the Scandinavian market. Interested parties should contactKlosterdata directly.
• Bruce Eckel occasionally presents Python, although sometimes he goes for long intervals teaching only other subjects.
• Sean Reifschneider works through his tummy.com, ltd.
• Occasionally I introduce a Users Group to Python. While in principle I'd happily go into greater depth, my calendar is usually booked with other commitments.
• Nicolas Chauvat of LOGILAB trains well, with a concentration in France.
• Mats Wichmann trains ...
• Dave Kuhlman
• Marc Balmer, a Lecturer at Basel University who teaches quite a bit of Python
• Lotfi Ben Othmane taught Python atWestern Michigan inspring 2009.
• [conferences, ...] Information on particular classes is often available at the www.python.org Events page.
