Salesforce offers continuing education to anyone whom wishes to learn about their platform. During this past week I attended a class in Atlanta, Georgia at the Microtek Center. The class was Dev-531, Introduction to Object Oriented Programming using APEX. The class is supposed to give people the fundamental understanding of how to develop using the Salesforce.com platform development code, APEX. The instructor was outstanding and tried to do his best to answer our questions, but the ...
It's kind of strange to see my hometown in the news over such a non-issue. The little town I speak of is Morgan Hill, CA at a little school called Live Oak High School.
