"The impressing thing during the class was the way that all GoF patterns were taught throughout a comprehensive application. It makes it much easier to follow when we understand the domain we are operating within instead of having to constantly shift domains to demonstrate "what if" scenarios. Even when we posed seemingly difficult questions the instructor was able to answer them intelligently and logically. He did a great job making sure we understood the ins and outs of the subject matter."

Design Interactive
"The instructor's knowledge of the subject and his experience with working with differing software designs in the field were impressive. I also liked the overview of design concepts and business concept modeling that came on the first day. It put the individual design patterns into perspective as they related to different designs. I also loved the documentation."
Mike Wells
Software Engineer

"I enjoyed the hands on exercises in this course. Since it was a small class we were able to stray off the trail when there were additional items we had questions on. The instructor knew the patterns and their applications very well. I think his real world experience really helps when explaining the application of them outside of an academic environment. I intend to use what I learned here to enhance my analysis and design efforts and to facilitate re-factoring existing code."
