Advanced JavaScript Training

Overview

Outline

Feedback

JavaScript is a central part of modern web development. The emergence of HTML5, AJAX, frameworks, and jQuery have made JavaScript an essential part of the web developers toolkit.

Advanced JavaScript Training

Our 1-day Advanced JavaScript training course reinforces language fundamentals, and looks at the complex issue of scope. Tools for structuring and testing JavaScript are examined and relevant frameworks and libraries are discussed. At the end of the course the role of server-side JavaScript using Node is introduced.

In this programme training course, you will learn from experienced web developers who will draw from knowledge gained from practice as well as from a history of running training courses. As this is a private course, the content can be tailored to your needs so you get exactly what you want out of the 1 day.

If you are new to JavaScript, we recommend our beginners JavaScript training course - also available as part of our Mobile Web Week with HTML5 & CSS3 and Responsive Web Design.

Advanced JavaScript training is a private course, scheduled at a time and place to suit you. We can run a course at our premises in Brighton or provide in-house training. Please call +44 (0)1273 622272 to discuss your needs and arrange a quote.

I enjoyed John's style of presentation, it was relaxed and well paced. I liked how he explained the examples as we worked on them.

It had good content and the right balance in terms of time, learning and practicing. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to learn jQuery and JavaScript.

The overall course was excellent. Nic was very helpful and knowledgeable, and the heavily exercise-driven content meant that everyone was challenged to think up solutions to the problems. I would not hesitate to recommend this course to others.
