Hello fellow Rubyists, My partner, Mike Sullivan, and I are hosting a 3 day training workshop titled Ruby on Rails plus JRuby [http://inspiredhorizons.com/training/rails](http://inspiredhorizons.com/training/rails)in St. Louis, MO Feb. 22nd through 24th. This hands-on workshop is for beginning to intermediate web developers who want to get a solid foundation of Ruby on Rails (through version 1.2). You will come away with a practical knowledge of the technology so you can be productive on your own. We will cover the basics of Ruby, all the major aspects of Rails, and ways to boost productivity using key plugins such as MasterView and AAA. We will also cover JRuby, demonstrating how to to leverage an existing enterprise Java codebase while rapidly doing new development and refactoring with Rails. As a project to aid learning throughout the workshop, attendees will create a flexible portal/CMS system, building in new functionalities during each lesson. We are big fans of local user groups, so to support them, we are offering a $200 discount to any member of a user group.
