ColdFusion Training Overview
Learn to build data-driven Web applications using ColdFusion in this challenging and enjoyable ColdFusion MX training class! This course teaches attendees the core ColdFusion Markup Language (CFML) skills they need to successfully build database-driven Web sites with ColdFusion.
Location and Pricing
Most Accelebrate courses are taught on-site at our clients' locations worldwide for groups of 3 or more attendees and are customized to their specific needs. Please visit our client list to see organizations for whom we have recently delivered training. To receive a customized proposal and price quote, please contact us.
In addition, some courses are available as live, online classes for individuals. To see a schedule of online courses, please visit http://www.accelebrate.com/online_training/adobe.htm.
Alternative ColdFusion Training Course
This ColdFusion training class focuses more on teaching attendees CFML coding practices and less on using Dreamweaver to automatically generate the ColdFusion code. If you are looking for a training class that is oriented to using Dreamweaver's "drag and drop" features to automatically generate code, please see the description for Building ColdFusion Web Sites with Dreamweaver training.
ColdFusion Training Prerequisites
All Beginning ColdFusion training students must be fluent in HTML, including text layout, image placement, hyperlinks, tables, and forms. Prior SQL and programming experience is helpful but not required.
