    Hi guys,
    Not so much looking for certification but does anyone know of any training company that offers RoR training in Dublin?

    Might just be worth getting some books and self-studying but people at work are looking into it too.

    Sorry if it's the wrong forum.

    Thanks,
    78

    I'm not a programmer by trade, but happened to have to learn a rapid development programming language for a particular customer who had brought our product. I would use quite a bit of C as part of my job, but none of the newer languages.

    I found this site/ebook to be fantastic. It is the weirdest reference/tutorial I have seen, but I found it inspired. It covers Ruby, as opposed to the "On rails" aspect.

    Why's (Poignant) Guide To Ruby/poignant-guide/

    May be of no use to you, but it introduced new concepts to me in a way that no lofty reilly publication could.

    Hi All,

    In response to 78 -Hope you had luck with the resources posted, the pragmatic books are excellent. If you are interested we are thinking of running a Ruby Rails Training weekend in the Autumn in Dublin. Just trying to gauge if this would be something of interest? We're a rails firm that offer rails consulting to U.S and off-shore companies from Ireland. best of luck

    Hey, thanks for the response. Yeah, I've been using the Pragmatic books for a bit now. I'd be interested in hearing more about the training.

    Cheers,
