Django workshop Nottingham 18 May

[Erskine Design]

Hi - If you fancy popping up to Nottingham we're holding a workshop
for developers interested in improving their Django skills.

It’ll cover all the essentials including:

* Setting up a new project
* Package management
* Database migration with South
* The model, view template structure
* Working with forms
* Customising the admin interface

Then you’ll put it all into action by building a Tumblog. By the end
of the workshop you should have all the necessary skills to start
developing with Django.

Andrew Godwin will be opening the workshop with an insight into
Django’s architecture, an update on the new features just released in
1.4 and some insights into the often-missed secrets of Django. He’ll
also be on hand throughout the workshop to chat and answer questions.
Andrew is a co-founder of ep.io, a Python platform-as-a-service
(PaaS)
hosting provider. He is also a Django core contributor and is one of
the creators of South, a tool that brings migrations to Django
applications. When it comes to Django there are few more
knowledgeable
people, so we’re delighted to have him.

We've kept costs to a minimum and included a special rate for
students.
