The NDA has been lifted, and now we can tell you all we know about iPhone application development!

iPhone Application Development for Flash Developers

Dates: December 7th - December 8th, 9:30 am - 5:30 pm (~8 classroom hours a day)
Instructor: Echo Mobile
Price: $399
Max Students: 33
Location: Rich Media Institute - Toronto - 156 Augusta Avenue, Toronto, Ontario, M5T 2L5 (map)

Description:

This course will introduce you to both the design and programming elements of creating and deploying applications for the iPhone. We will be covering the Objective-C programming language, X Code, Interface Builder, and the iPhone emulator.

Course Outcomes:

At the end of this intensive 2-day workshop, programmers will be confident in knowing what steps are required to build and deploy iPhone applications. You will walk away with many working examples that will help jump-start your own iPhone applications.

Who this course is for:

This course is for developers who have experience programming with Flash and ActionScript. The examples and analogies used in this class with compare the development environment of the iPhone SDK with the development environment of Flash and ActionScript. Comparing these two environments will help experienced Flash developers understand the iPhone SDK in a way that is already familiar to them. It will be an introductory level course for the iPhone environment, but it is expected that people attending this workshop are fully comfortable with programming concepts. REQUIREMENTS: An Apple computer running the latest Mac OSX (Leopard) that is capable of having the iPhone SDK installed on it.
