Five days Android hands-on training for Java developers

[Sebastiano Cobianco]

hi juggers,

few days ago we had a great day training on java cryptography with
Jeff Lawson. Delegates enjoyed the day, and Jeff too. In fact, he is
willing to come back and deliver more training on Android. Here is the
deal

Jeff Lawson develops Android and iOS apps for a living and trains
others to do the same. His five-day, hands-on training courses empower
developers with no prior experience of mobile development by giving
them a thorough grounding through forty modules and seventy hands-on
worksheets. There are five-day, hands-on courses for Java and
Objective-C too.

For the week 13-17 May, Jeff will be delivering the 'Developing Mobile
Applications with Android' training course in Zurich, and run the same
training course in Lugano in week 3-7 June. The training course
comprises:

1 Introduction to Android and Mobile Devices
2 Development Environment Setup
3 Application Architecture and Lifecycle
4 XML, SAX, the Manifest and Resources
5 Resources and R.java
6 Activities and Intents - Alerts and Logging
