    Course Summary
    The Flex 2 Master Class is a combination of the Adobe Flex Level 1 and Level 2 courses;

  • Flex 2: Developing Rich Internet Client Applications


  • Flex 2: Data and Communications


    The Flex Master Class will propel you from Flex Zero to Flex Hero over the five days of the course.
    The first part of the Flex MasterClass provides experienced application developers with hands-on, practical experience using Flex. The first three days of the course introduces developers to all the primary features of Flex they'll need to kno- in order to build a fully functional, well architected front end for a Rich Internet Application (RIA).
    The second part of the Flex MasterClass provides experienced application developers with hands-on, practical experience connecting their Flex font ends to remote, dynamic data using Flex Data Services.
    Over these two days we focus on training developers ho- to connect with remote data using web services and Flex Data Services' features allowing communication with a Java backend. In addition, skills will be learned ho- to manipulate and format the returned data.
    The Flex MasterClass is a comprehensive 5 day course that provides the necessary skills and knowledge required to create websites powered with Flex technology.
