As Dimitri has already blogged, this year we are focussing on doing a lot more Oracle Application Express training events. With that in mind, the first public training I’m doing this year is 3 day Introduction to Oracle Application Express in Manchester on the 22nd March. Here’s an except from the course description – Introduction [...]
Yesterday, at the UKOUG APEX SIG (which I’ll post a follow-up about shortly), I did a quick 1 hour presentation on Increasing Scalability with Oracle Application Express, I touched on (and demonstrated) quite a few different techniques in which you can make you APEX applications more scalable (and/or just as importantly, reducing the overhead of [...]
Just a quick note to mention that on Wednesday I’ll be at the (2nd!) APEX SIG meeting at the Oracle City Office in London, it looks like it’s going to be a packed day (already sold out sorry!) full of APEX sessions. I’m very happy that something ‘official’ is now being held in the UK [...]
As we all know, the economy is making doomy, gloomy reading these days. So, in the spirit of doing our own little ‘stimulus package’, we have decided to give a free place on our upcoming Application Express Training course to the person who can give us the best reason why they deserve the place. There [...]
The “need” for a UKOUG Application Express SIG (Special Interest Group) has been discussed a lot, Jonathan Lewis blogged about it a year ago and received a lot of interest.

After our highly successful Brussels and London Application Express Training Days, Apex Evangelists have just opened registration for our 3rd Application Express 3-Day training course. So, what are these training days? Well, we host a lot of on-site training for clients, however we also hold ‘open training’ days, where anyone can sign up, come along [...]
Last week APEX Evangelists held the second European APEX Training Days event in London (the first event was held in Belgium and was so successful we decided to continue the theme and move to another major European city). The course was a 3-day Advanced class covering many different topics related to APEX, from Best Practices, [...]
These last few weeks we have been doing some Beginner APEX training classes for some companies here in the UK (APEX is certainly becoming more popular here in the UK). Now, I am quite risk averse when it comes to updating software, especially when I’m going to be demoing or training in the near future. [...]
I’ve been helping out providing some on-site beginner level Apex training for a company here in the UK over the last few weeks and it’s been quite a nice change for me since I’m usually called in for Advanced Level Training instead. None of the attendees were what I’d call ‘Oracle Developers’ or indeed Developers [...]
