On-site Classes

[python]

Most of our classes are on-site sessions, where the instructor travels to your location to deliver the class.  This page describes the on-site option.  Clients usually find our private on-site classes to be more cost effective for groups of 4 or more, especially when student travel costs are factored in.  On-site classes can be scheduled anywhere in the US and abroad, and are available in any available weeks on our calendar.  To arrange an on-site class, please contact us.

If you are looking for class topics, prerequisites, or other general information, please see our Course Topics and Overview pages.


Class Formats

The standard Python class is a 3-day session, taught at your company or organization.  This standard class provides an in-depth and hands-on introduction to the Python language, as well as surveys of its most common application domains.  For most clients, the 3-day class is a perfect way to bring students up to speed on Python programming. 

In addition to the standard 3-day class, many clients find it beneficial to schedule follow-on sessions to focus on advanced application topics such as GUIs, the Web, and C integration in more depth.  Follow-up sessions expand on the topics in the Python Application section of the outline on the Course Topics page, and can be devoted to more realistic programs as group projects.

A 2-day introductory session is also available.  However, we recommend the 3-day standard session to cover the core language in sufficient depth, with additional follow-up sessions for clients interested in focusing on application topics in more depth.


Financial Details

We use a uniform, all-inclusive pricing structure, to simplify the financial details.  Prices quoted on this page include all expenses related to the class, and are listed in US dollars (USD).

Standard On-site Class Prices

For on-site sessions, where we travel to your site to deliver the training, class prices are as follows:

All-inclusive price for a 3 day session, up to 15 students $10,000
All-inclusive price for a 2 day session, up to 15 students $8,500
Added cost per extra class day $1,500
Added cost per student above 15 student limit $500
Added cost per class day for travel to New York City $300
Added cost for international travel: dependent on destination TBD

The prices above are all flat rate, all-inclusive amounts.  They include all costs related to the class, including, but not limited to: the class itself, instructor travel costs, students CDs, access to an electronic copy of the class workbook, use of class materials, and any shipping charges.  No other amounts will be billed to your organization.


Pricing Notes

We arrange and assume all travel costs directly, and do not charge for them as a separate item.  The client will make copies of the class workbook for students if desired, and will have a computer display projector at the training site (see the class set-up section below).  Here are a few additional notes on the components of our price structure:

Consulting add-on days

The instructor also does Python consulting, as time allows.  Training takes priority over consulting, but clients have added consulting days at the end of a training session.  Such add-on consulting days are always available, and priced the same as an extra day of training.

Payment

We prefer payment on delivery of services.  Alternatively, we can accept up to standard payment terms. We are able to accept payment by credit card, check, money order, direct deposit, and wire transfer.  Because we incur added charges for credit card sales, we prefer to utilize credit card payments for small amounts only.

Set-up Requirements

Class set-up is simple, and can proceed quickly.  Once class dates are scheduled, we provide a link to the class workbook master by email, and perform any required billing setup tasks.  We arrange instructor travel, and you prepare the training site for the class.  Here is a checklist of set-up requirements for holding a successful class at your site:
