Courses / workshops in App Development

Are there any instructor-led courses in iphone or android app development in Dublin?

Any experiences, comments, recommendations?

I just started to learn android development last month on my own.
I read stuff online and watched these videos from this website:

I already have experience in windows mobile and java mobile development which made it a bit easier to learn.

I've attended http://appschool.ie/ (iPhone-only) and can recommend it. I've blogged about it, if you want to know more about my experience.

Don't know about that. I think all tutor-led training is expensive. However, if you compare it to other 5-day tutor-led courses (including lunch), it's not.

The real value for me (being a guy that prefers to self-train online) was not alone the problems I encountered, but the ones others encountered as well. So it is expensive, but not compared with similar courses.

You decide the value and whether or not it's worth it to you!

android is easy to learn on your own.

Go to iTunes U and search for Objective C coarse. Then when you learned that, take the C++ Coarse or the 'programming for iPhone coarse.
ITS FREE.
