You're Early for Joomla 2.5 Training
...And that's a good thing.
Thanks for checking out the Start Learning Joomla. We hope you've learned something and are looking forward to learning even more with us.
As you might know, writing and producing professional quality video training is quite a long and involved process.
Why is it a good thing?
We have worked hard to design and build a course to truly teach Joomla to people with no previous content management system training. Our Joomla 1.5 course set the standard for years. The unusually short life of Joomla 1.7 has lead some people to a training dead end, but the folks over on the development team have committed to 2.5 for long term release. That means our training program for 2.5 will be of value to you for years to come.
There is a massive gap between the Joomla documentation, the Joomla interface, and everyday users. While the developers didn't set out to make it this way, they also may not have realized how hard it really is for most of us to "get it". And while tutorials are helpful, they are not really courses. What we have set out to do is to build a complete professional course to take you from zero knowledge to competent Joomla user. By the end, you will not need tutorials because you have your own skills to learn upon to solve just about every common Joomla task you'll come across. You'll also have the background and skill necessary to understand and apply all of the Joomla documentation. In short, you'll just get it!
This is a Professional Course. It is not a book. It is not a DVD series.
Two day professional Joomla training classes typically cost hundred dollars. One week programs are typically several thousand. These classroom environments are great for learning, but extremely expensive. The best trainers are not always available in your local area as well. To train to this level, many people would typically need to to travel to a large city, pay for hotels, rental cars and take time off of regular work activities. Our course brings this same level of training to you wherever you are.
Make no mistake, you are buying a well-tested Joomla training course that employs clear and effective training techniques to teach you. You will receive direction and guidance in the form of a well-designed and well-tested curriculum with clear learning goals. Prior to release, the curriculum will have been tested by several hundred students like you for over 4 months of heavy use.
