The course includes more than 100 practical exercises that you solve in class, during the course, so it's not only listening to endless theoretical descriptions, but actual practical coding .

We believe that coding during the trainings has inumerous benefits: you retain the knowledge better, it's easier to keep attention and focus on the topics, the instructor has the opportunity to see if students are keeping up with the explanaition by the ease with which they solve the exercises.

While you solve the exercises the instructor can see your code and help you to complete the task.

We distill the Scala Language for you in simple, easy to understand, small steps .

Learning a new language can be challenging: lots of new concepts to study intertwined with each other. We break down the language in small stepping stones so learning it becomes a fun, pleasant experience.

We take a pragmatic approach to the teaching of Scala, so we want to set you up with the most amount of knowledge in the least amount of time that can help you start coding and make an impact in the world.

The course does not include endless theoretical expositions, but we rather focus on the practical usage of the Scala language.

The Pragmatic Scala course is designed with busy students in mind. For this reason it takes only 15 hours . It is usually offered in one week, Mon-Fri, with 3 hours of training per day (totalling the 15 hours).

Also, all the training, both the theoretical explanations and the practical exercises happens in class . There are no materials to read before the course, or tasks to complete outside training hours. This is because usually students are already quite busy and unable to accomodate even more time than the one already set aside for the training itself.
