Advanced ExpressionEngine 2: Instructor

Creat-ee classes are like taking a drink from a fire hydrant on a hot day! Cool, refreshing, and can be a little over whelming at times, but in a great way. The depth of knowledge and the complete transparency of sharing of real world projects is well worth the time and cost. When I first started I did not even realize what I did not know. But now I understand ee concepts, best practices and technics to perfect my EE craft.

Introduction: Testimonials

Thanks very much for providing the free webinar introducing Expression Engine. I've been looking into CMS's and PHP frameworks and was pretty intimidated by the variety of functions. Seeing EE in use (especially the ability to design template files in house and the management of multiple authors) makes me very interested in the system. I'm definitely proposing to my boss that we add EE to our workflow!

—Jonathan

Thank you so much for taking the time to show me a little about EE today.  I thought you kept things very simple and easy to understand which made it very easy for a beginner like me.

Also, your designs are absolutely gorgeous.  Great job on all of them.

—Rob

This introduction to ExpressionEngine was just what I needed to help calm the fears of learning something outside the realm of my skill set.

—Eric
