Technical Training
Local (South Florida) area only. $100/hour in 1 hour increments; 10% more for
each extra person being trained. Most classes can be taught to a single person
in a half hour unless noted below. Note: I cannot teach stupid people
well. If you aren't already good at something, I probably cannot
teach you about computers. If you are good at something, no matter
how unrelated to computing it may be, I can probably train you successfully
and quickly.
What is HTML? Tags and text. Creating and debugging simple web pages with
formatted text and images. Windows or Linux.
HTML 102
Tables, frames, and SSI (Server Side Includes - only for Linux).
CGI 101
Simple CGI script creation in Perl under Linux or Windows.
Linux 101
Installing Linux on your PC, and using it for web browsing and email. This can
take several hours depending on hardware. For quickest installation, have older
hardware (80x386 is sufficient) with a clean hard drive and bootable CDROM
drive, and I will use an older Linux distribution.
Electricity 101
Safety; Ohm's Law; AC and DC; relationship of frequency to inductive and
capacitative reactance; electrostatic discharge (ESD); measurement of voltage,
current, and resistance using DMM and Oscilloscope. (Course time: 1 hour including test)
Bits and bytes; RS232; 10baseT; using oscilloscope to measure bit rate of serial
transmission, and to observe MTU of network packets. (Course time: 1 hour including test)
