Market Research

I hope no-one minds if I use this post to do a quick bit of market research.

I’m planning to run some more public Perl training courses in April. Until now when I’ve run these courses, they have been pretty generic beginners, intermediate and advanced courses. But now I’m thinking that it might be interesting to run more focussed courses.

I’m planning to keep the intermediate course (as that seems to be pretty popular). So that leaves me looking for two more courses to run. Current ideas include:

  • Testing
  • OO Perl (largely covering Moose)
  • Databases (largely covering DBIx::Class)
  • Web programming (touching on basic CGI but moving on swiftly to things like Catalyst and PSGI)

Does anyone have any opinions? What Perl courses would you like to see in London? What courses would you attend? Or, perhaps more importantly, what courses would your employers pay for you to attend?

  1. We are looking for Moose, DBIx::Class and Catalyst training at my current employment. If we can’t buy in a course, then it would be quite likely that we could get sent on a relevant course for this. Contact me through my blog

  2. How much testing will you do as part of the web development, or should that be how much web testing will you do as part of the testing course?
    I’m thinking that learning better perl for testing websites would be quite cool.
