Switch Javascript and Advanced Concepts Seminar

A one day hands-on seminar on Javascript and advanced concepts with XML, SQL during Print 17 in Chicago. We had great feedback from last 4 seminars and will be incorporating more hands-on exercises. Bring your list of questions and requirements and we will work through them.

Cost $1,375 for one, $2,050 for two
Remote students are welcome to signup. We will have video and audio connectivity to the classroom.

No Javascript experience is required. This class will cover the basics of the JavaScript language and then move on to Switch specific topics including metadata, XML and SQL. Computers will be provided loaded with Switch and Pitstop Server.

Attendees will take home a USB flash drive full of example flows, scripts and Javascript snippets. Worth the admission price alone!
