    ... these jWeekend courses have raised the bar for trainers everywhere. [show]

    "Just wanted to let you know that I enjoyed the course very much. It saved me many hours so far while designing and implementing our Wicket-based web solution. We have now integrated Wicket with our existing GUI model and server services, and the solution seems to be promising."

    We have covered a lot of material and the course has been very good. [show]
    "We have covered a lot of material and the course (Wicket) has been very good. The level of interactivity is perfect. Thank you for spending so much time on each exercise, challenging me until the material was absolutely clear. We went well beyond my expectations of a 2 day course."
  • The 2-day Swing course was informative and brilliantly paced [show]
    "The 2-day Swing course was informative and brilliantly paced, despite the mixed knowledge of the various participants. The instructor had excellent knowledge of the subject and was willing and able to answer any questions thrown at him. This included subjects only loosely related to the subject matter (such as Design Patterns and Threads in general.) All in all, a recommended course for anyone using Swing."

    The 2-day course on Apache Wicket was a great introduction to the framework [show]
    "The 2-day course on Apache Wicket was a great introduction to the framework. The content was well laid out with each module advancing in logical progression. The corresponding practical tutorials reflected this building a good comprehension of wicket fundamentals. I was also impressed with the enthusiasm of Al and Cemal who not only expressed themselves eloquently but also took pains to ensure everyone kept up and encouraged open discussion on related topics time allowing. A very educating and enjoyable day, thanks guys!"

    the Wicket course was exactly what we were looking for [show]
    "Thanks for an interesting and productive weekend. I felt the Wicket course was exactly what we were looking for and had a good balance between presentations, discussion and hands on tinkering. Even though our group came from radically different development backgrounds I think everyone came away with a useful understanding of the framework. Al has a clear presentation style and you both successfully fielded queries from beginners, experienced wicketeers, and talented web developers used to other ways of doing things... i doff my cap to you."

    It is amazing how much you can learn in just 2 days! [show]
    "A subcontractor had recommended the Apache Wicket course arranged by JWeekend, I finally found the time to participate March 21-22. Alastair and Cemal did a very good job at teaching Wicket with lots of hands-on tutorials. It is amazing how much you can learn in just 2 days! My ideal web stack is now wicket/spring/jpa/hibernate and I feel very efficient :)"

    a very enjoyable and valuable experience and I recommend this course for anyone [show]
