We're happy to announce that [registration is now
open](http://thoughtbot.eventwax.com/advanced-ruby-on-rails_1) for our next
**Advanced Ruby on Rails** training class.

This one is in New York City at [Rockefeller Plaza
Center](http://maps.google.com/maps?q=1230+Avenue+of+the+Americas,+New+York+City,+NY)
on Friday, December 5th, 2008.

![''](http://images.thoughtbot.com/ui/2008-10-7-rock.jpg)thoughtbot will teach
programmers who are familiar with Ruby on Rails **real-world skills** to take
their use of the framework to the **advanced** level:

* Rails best practice patterns and anti-patterns
* Refactoring with confidence
* Test driven development with ease
* Contributing back to the community with plugins and gems

Using [Umbrella Today?](http://umbrellatoday.com) as a case study, we'll walk
through our process and our code. For truly deep comprehension, each lesson is
accompanied by a hands-on workshop where you'll code while we mentor by your
side.
