While browsing through Craigslist the other day, I came across an ad that caught my attention. There wasn’t a lot of information given, but basically, it was offering free ASP.NET training in the evenings. I figured it didn’t hurt to give them a call to get more information.

It’s a class being offered by the Private Industrial Council. They received grant money to help improve technology job opportunities for Butte County. As a part of this plan, they have partnered with Butte College to offer a 7 week intensive ASP.NET training course. It is going to be held three nights a week from 6 – 9 on the Butte College Campus. This makes it very convenient for me.

I really think this will be a great way to get me started with .NET. I’ve wanted to learn it for quite a while, but haven’t seemed to be able to get the ball rolling. The chance at a class setting will definitely put me in a better position to be successful. Plus, it’s completely free! They even provide the book.

The only drawback is Connor. He’ll be asleep by the time I get home after class, so I won’t be able to see him until the next morning. It is going to be difficult being away from him for so long, but I believe it is going to be well worth it in the long run.
