Drupal/PHP training in Delhi area?

Hi

I myself started php some time back even though i had been dabbling with php for quite some time myself i wanted to learn php from a inst / pro to save my learning time, but some how could not find any good institute in Delhi, I even visited two or three institutes called number of them but after interacting with them was just not satisfied enough to join them. If your absolute beginner into programming world you may join them but if you already have a some other prog Lang experience i feel the whole course is not more then 2 classes as they just teach absolute basic php.

To my surprise i could not fine any inst who taught things like smarty/cake php/zend etc..

I would suggest you to find php training books and video tutorials on the net and start doing it yourself.

or the best bet is get in touch with a php professional and learn from him

you may get in touch with me at gursharanbhatia@gmail.com and may be i may help you in some way.

I think internet and open source has really opened up new dimensions to our understanding of computers and applications, These highly complex systems are entirely naked for you to appreciate and gaze at :). I think your best shot with learning drupal and php is to take short term measurable tasks, make your own website in drupal. Think of how u would want it to look, take help from fellow drupallers and achieve that. That is a good 3 -4 weeks of task for a beginner and you would be amazed how much you know about this ecosystem. things will become intuitive even if u never heard about a module or haven't read its documentation (though I endorse reading docs).

I think on your own is the best way to learn something, consider forming a team of beginner enthusiasts and achieve a common task.

I think its mostly about self learning. No matter how good a trainer you have, you still need your will to learn.
I had tons of PHP Training CBTs on my PC but you really can't learn from that.

I already had basic knowledge about PHP but in order to learn PHP faster and same time as gsb mentioned, took training from Innobuzz (www.innobuzz.in) It actually worked out good and better then my expectations. The best part was CakePHP, i though it would be difficult with the MVN Architecture and all but after practicing and working over, cakephp is actually quite useful. However, I wont say that it is easy, Takes a bit of mind-boggling to understand it.

All in all, classroom training can help you save some time for sure.

I would like to add to what dipen suggested about 'becoming intuitive' You need to read.

Spend 20-30 mins every day reading blogs about the things you want to learn and in a month you will have a good understanding of things, and how they happen.

It may look like self promotion but try spending just 15 mins on http://phpcamp.net everyday for next one week and read articles that get submitted by the campers from across the web and see if it adds any thing to your knowledge base.

Also Experiment, build things as much as you can. Tweak things, write simple apps.

Do Something.Prioritize and focus.

Our own PHP Community http://phpcamp.net

I would say that try IOS ( Institute Of Open Source) for all the advanced topics in PHP, as in IOS classes are conducted only on weekends and are taken by hard core industry professionals.

Hi

seems rohit and rajni are from the seo teams of Innobuzz and IOS respectively as they are canvassing about the training institutes who do not teach any thing beyond basic php infact too basic php.

I have been to both the institutes myself personally and they accept it openly they do not teach more than basic php and to my surprise Innobuzz did not had any course formulated also for real world needs like smarty, cake php, zend studio, joomla, magento, code igniter or any other framework, i wondered if i was asking for too much.

and IOS was all handsup for this for that matter.

so i wonder people recommending these institutes for php training whats the point of the training if you may not use in the real world as far as basic php syntax, functions or mysql is concerned any one can read any basic book and understand in a day or two.

I would really appreciate Innobuzz brand building and SEO though as they have placed themselves on almost all blogs including this post and every page that has some thing to do with php technology. I belive they have more strength in SEO rather then PHP.

I have given hopes for php training institutes in Delhi and i would request the PRO's out here that yes man i am interested to learn php and all that relates to it any one intrested here to teach virtually or personally get in touch with me at gursharanbhatia at gmail.com.

The best response for any institute is offcourse word of mouth of ppl who had learned themselves there, but my friends word of mouth here on the net are 80% fake as they are placed themself by ppl who run such business in order to promote themselves.

sorry IOS and innobuzz no offense meant but that's my experience and i wonder how may ppl like me who want to learn php are not able to find the right path. I suggest you guys to work more on php then SEO and waiting to hear from you guys i am intrested to join you but when you can teach advanced php

Hey PHP PROS out there who read this post i am intrested to learn any one willing to teach either virtually or personally ??

I want to learn ZEND & Advanced Php, Cake Walk Smarty and Code Igniter

Sorry guys i am too late but

Well this is for people who are looking towards serious training on advanced PHP topics (you may call it self advertisement but what do you want quality training or something else).
I provide virtual training on whatever php topics, it is required
