Courses can be specially arranged for you at our Melksham training centre - maximum group size is ten trainees, and you'll have exclusive use of our facilities during the course. Further details of Specially Run Courses are available elsewhere on this site.

We usually tailor private courses to meet your exact requirements, but it's likely that such courses would be based on the following standard formulae:

Deploying LAMP - Linux, Apache, MySQL, Perl/PHP is a four day course covering the technologies involved in installing, configuring and supporting a web application written in Perl or PHP.

Technology Background for PHP overviews (in one day) the technologies such as the Web, programming and SQL that you'll need to make good use of PHP as taught on the following PHP Programming course.

A full list of modules on PHP is available on this site. Much of this material is specialised, and some of it is not included in any of the courses listed above.

We also have a number of modules on general subjects, modules on MySQL and modules on Internet / web that are often included on custom courses.
