[Herefordshire] Free OsCommerce Course to Herefordshire Businesses

[Julian Robbins]

Hi

Would anyone be interested in a FREE 2 day course ?

The National B2B Centre at the University of Warwick are happy to put on
a course, if we can muster at least 5 or 6 people to go on it. This
would be possibly a two day course in OS Commerce Training.

Venue: TBA

This would be suitable for web developers, looking for an open source
software package for building e-commerce websites.

osCommerce is an online shop e-commerce solution under on going
development by the open source community. Its feature packed
out-of-the-box installation allows store owners to setup, run, and
maintain their online stores with minimum effort and with absolutely no
costs or license fees involved.

osCommerce combines open source solutions to provide a free and open
e-commerce platform, which includes the powerful PHP web scripting
language, the stable Apache web server, and the fast MySQL database
server. With no restrictions or special requirements, osCommerce is able
to run on any PHP enabled web server, on any environment that PHP and
MySQL supports, which includes Linux, Solaris, BSD, Mac OS X, and
Microsoft Windows environments.

The only stipulation is that unfortuantely, this would only be open to
businesses, not private individuals, due to the way in which they are
funded by the EU.

If anyone is interested, please get back to the list. If you know of
anyone else who is interested, please tell them. This is NOT restricted
to LUG members anyone can join the course, as long as they work for a
ltd company.
