Early last year we at Engage started putting together our training materials for DotNetNuke. We’ve been delivering DNN training for almost 5 years now, but had always done it customized for individual clients, starting in 2008 we began offering Classroom training here in St. Louis. We’ve had a good turnout of attendees for our classroom training, mostly from the United States, but a few from Canada. We’ve had a number of inquiries over the years about training outside of the states. Training has given me the opportunity to travel to far off places, which is definitely fun, but for some individuals and companies having one of our trainers fly to their office, or sending someone to St. Louis, Missouri for training is just too expensive.
We’ve finally put together a few solutions for people who don’t want, or can’t afford the classroom or onsite training offerings from Engage.
We are now offering DotNetNuke Webinar training classes. We held our first class on April 22nd and had an excellent turnout and feedback for this first free session called “Introduction to DotNetNuke”. We are offering this free webinar again on May 6th, 2009, you can get signed up for the class by visiting our Virtual Classroom page. The Intro to DotNetNuke course is one hour long, and runs from 12pm CDT to 1PM CDT.
In addition to our free course, which we will offer each month, we have three other courses available at a price of $199, these courses will be held two hours each day on Tues/Wed/Thur of their respective weeks.

If you caught Show #5 of the DNNVoice (www.dnnvoice.com) you have probably already heard this information, but for those of you who haven’t DotNetNuke 04.09.03 was released this week. This release has a number of bug fixes from the 04.09.02 version, you can read more about the fixes in Shaun’s blog posts at dotnetnuke.com.
I’ve upgraded all of my personal website projects that were running on earlier versions of DNN. You can download the latest version at www.dotnetnuke.com. If you’re on DNN 4.6.2 or greater the installation process is pretty easy. Backup your website and database. Copy the contents of the 4.9.3_Upgrade package over your website files, then access the site. DNN will handle the rest of the upgrade process for you. BE SURE TO BACKUP YOUR SITE AND DATABASE first.
On a related note Pat and I are doing a few final reviews for our upcoming book, DotNetNuke A User’s Guide. Hopefully we won’t find anything major in the last few changes that are undergoing review so that the book can meet it’s date of a June 2009 release.
