Programming Courses

From 2007-2026, I taught a variety of project-based programming
courses. These were usually taught in an intense week-long immersion format. None of these
courses are currently scheduled, but this page includes links
to course descriptions for historical reference:

An End to Courses

It’s sad, but true. The courses that I used to offer here have to come
to end. I’d just like to thank everyone who attended over the
years–I really enjoyed teaching these classes and hope that those of
you who took them learned a lot. I know I did!

Honestly, I thought I might be teaching these courses into my
retirement, but the enrollment numbers don’t lie. Since 2023, there
has been a complete collapse in the market for continuing education.
As this was my primary source of income, I’ve been forced to move
on.

In reflecting upon all of this, this upheaval comes at a time when
my kids are heading off to college. Even if business conditions were
better, I’m still not sure I’d want to spend my empty-nest days sitting
in the basement, staring at Zoom, and walking the dog.
So, for the moment I’ve decided to go back to graduate school to get
my Professional Educator’s License in Secondary Education, final destination
unknown. Stay tuned.
