We have just released our new training course 3 days before Adobe Max 2010 in Los Angeles, California (October 22,23,24).  This is a brand new course for CBOX-101 as it includes everything for ColdBox 3.0.0 + a 1 day workshop where we will do boot camp coding!  You have the option of either attending the 2 day training or the 3 day training, whatever you fancy!  We also have a special discount for Adobe Max attendees, so if you are already going to Max, drop us a line at training@coldbox.org or at twitter/coldbox and we will give you the special discount code for Adobe Max attendees.  We did just this 3 day training a few months ago in London and it was fantastic.

I was actually a 'Spaghetti-Code-Programmer' before i got into this MVC stuff. Then I found ColdBox. Only one comment - f a n t a s t i c ! After doing some self-studying, I got to the training in London. I had 3 great days improving my CB-knowledge - directly told by the CB-Master himself. There was enough time to bring in my own questions and doing real world examples. The training material - 2 big books(!) is also a great reference.

The Coldbox training raised my game in developing Coldfusion applications. It gave me a great understanding of the framework itself and vastly improved my original conceptions on OOP programming. Coldbox is a fantastic framework and I highly recommend it and the training.
- Richard Cooper

This course will offer 2 days of intense training in the core platform and the last day will be a hands on boot camp.  We will code, have Q&A and it is also an open forum for questions, show and tell for your applications, and more.  Below is the location information which is 5 minutes from LA Live and the LA Convention Center where Adobe Max will be held.

O Hotel Group We will be holding this event in the O Hotel in downtown Los Angeles from October 22 to the 24.  You can book the 2 day training or the full 3 day training if you like.  The O Hotel is the first independent boutique hotel in Downtown LA. The historic 1920's building was completely refurbished down to the smallest detail for the launch in September 2007.  O Hotel is located in the heart of Downtown's revitalized urban scene, a few blocks from L.A. Live, Staples Center, the Nokia Theater, the Convention Center and the Walt Disney Concert Hall.

ColdBox + BoxLang: The Future of Modern MVC on the JVM Welcome to Day 1 of the 12 Days of BoxLang

To kick off the series, we’re starting with one of the most powerful combinations in the Ortus ecosystem: ColdBox + BoxLang.

ColdBox has been the standard for modern CFML MVC development for over a decade. BoxLang is the next-generation dynamic language built for JVM and beyond. Together, they reshape how developers build web apps, APIs, microservices, CLIs, and soon desktop applications.

Let’s dive into why ColdBox 8 + BoxLang PRIME is a major milestone for the future of modern application development.
