the virtual classroom opens May 10th
First Lesson posted May 15th

From a basic install of the Joomla! Content Management System, with hosting provided by LVS Associates for this class, you will build an example site for the new (and imaginary!) LVS Online Garden Center. We have the Client’s brief, the images and dummy content and this course will take you through the development, step-by-step, from beginning to completion.

It isn’t a manual, it isn’t a series of unrelated ‘how tos’ – it is a complete site build for you to wrap up and take away at the end of the course and adapt for your own use. You don’t need any books or software for this class – it is a specially written course for LVS Online with original material.

The best way to learn is by ‘doing’ and with the Joomla! Fast Track Course at LVS Online it will be like having your own personal tutor guiding you. Comprehensive Course Notes are provided with each lesson and the Instructor is available in the Joomla Class Online Virtual Classroom at LVS Online for help and assistance during the class.

Course Cost $30US for new students $24US for returning students

The final decision will be made by the students in an anonymous vote ten days after the last lesson is posted. The virtual classroom is the ‘heart’ of an LVS Online course which adds to the experience of learning online.

Artisteeris the first and only Web design automation product that instantly creates fantastic looking, unique CMS website templates and blog themes. Recently added, the ability to create a Joomla! template with over 22 fully collapsible positions, is making Artisteer ‘must have’ software for the Joomla! Developer.

How better to support the Australian Red Cross Victorian Bushfire Appeal 2009 than to buy one book at $29.95US and get four free. I can’t speak highly enough of these textbooks – every Developer should have them!

Kudos and admiration to the Sitepoint Staff who are giving up their time to do this – every cent of the $29.95 that you pay for these five books goes to the Red Cross for this critical appeal.

Joomla online class registration is available costing only $25 per six week instructor-led course reducing to $20 for returning students – we look forward to ‘meeting’ you…

Quote from LVS Online:

“Our online classes are perfect for senior learners, homeschoolers, or those seeking a stress-relieving hobby or even a career change. You will not need any special hardware or software to participate. There are no scheduled class times – you decide when you would like to work online, day or the middle of the night, no matter what time zone. Your instructor is there to review your work, answer questions or concerns and, if you would like, you can chat with other students on our class discussion board. The very best part of online learning is that you do not have to leave your home to enjoy a course developed and taught by a professional in their field!”

Having ‘found’ LVS over six years ago I certainly can attest to the dedication of the tutors and the quality of the course content. LVS Online Classes cover an enormous breadth of subjects – there is a course for everyone! Check out the available courses here.

There are five ’sessions’ a year with the next one open for registration on February 9th 2009.

Come along and join us all – new students only pay $US 25 per six week instructor led session (returning students only $20)! …and a big special welcome to all students who join me in the LVS Online Joomla! Fast Track Course which is new for March 2009.

2009 is the time for me to ‘give back’ and I can reveal that from March 2009, LVS Online will offer a new course – Joomla! Fast Track. LVS Online – where learning is fun!
