Gone are the days where organizations could get by with a simple, static web presence. These days, organizations need dynamic, database-driven sites, capable of integrating multiple functionalities, including new social media.

For the developers charged with creating those sites, the Python-based framework of Django solves that problem by allowing rapidly developed and easily deployed web applications and websites capable of growing as the organizational needs grow. The faster a developer learns to master Django, the more quickly that mastery can lead to productivity; and there is no faster or more comprehensive way to achieve that mastery than with Django Bootcamp at the Big Nerd Ranch, October 19-23, 2009.

"With Django, the emphasis is on speed," said Juan Pablo Claude, Django Bootcamp instructor. "Students will soon become adherents to Django's Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY) principle, which virtually eliminates duplication of code and streamlines development. And by using the Google AppEngine, applications can be easily and efficiently deployed, and scaled to grow as needs grow."

In just five short days, the Django training class provides intensive instruction to transform novice to expert so students can get on their way to developing high-powered, sophisticated web applications in Django.

By the end of the week, students will be able to:

Deploy Django applications using Apache

Integrate databases into applications, using PostgreSQL, MySQL or SQLite

Eliminate duplication with Django's powerful template system

Implement AJAX solutions into applications using Django

Create web services using Django and generate email and PDF and CSV files

Utilize the Google AppEngine to deploy Django applications and boost an organization's ability to create new web-based businesses

While prior experience in Python is not required, it can be helpful in preparing for the class. Students should, however, be familiar with object-oriented programming.
