?Real-world Flex for Java programmers? is an intensive, five-day hands-on training program for Web developers who need to create and integrate rich Internet clients written in Adobe Flex with enterprise J2EE applications. This is one of a kind hands-on workshop because during this week attendees will
* create two fully functional Flex/Java applications,
* learn how to properly set up a Java/Flex enterprise project
* start using Flex Eclipse plugins that will turn your Java project into a Rapid Application Development (RAD) environment
* start working on their projects in the class under the guidance of two experts and certified Adobe Flex instructors Yakov Fain and Dr. Victor Rasputnis, co-authors of the book RIA with Adobe Flex and Java .

Cool event Yakov! I'm sure that this would be an extremely useful 5 days for anyone wanting to learn Flex.Bruce Eckel is hosting a similar event for two days in Crested Butte, CO on August 13-14:

If you are interested in learning Flex and AIR, definitely go to one (or both) of these events!

And all that for only 2500$? Flex must be hot these daysRe: Announcing a 5-day hands-on workshop Real-World Flex for Java developer
It's hot, but not as hot as Java EE though. While our course costs about $2000 (includes a bunch of free software), Sun charges $3000 for a week of Java EE training http://www.sun.com/training/catalog/courses/FJ-310-EE5.xmlIt's also less expensive than Spring Framework training:

Hibernate training costs $2300 for four days:

There is a Wall Street term called P/E or price per earning ratio. As of today, earnings of Java programmers are 20-30% higher if they also have Flex skills. I know this first hand cause we are hiring people with these skills, which are not easy to find. P/E for Java+Flex skills is more favorable today than P/E for Java, which means that ROI in Flex training is higher.
