"In-person training is the obvious extension from our books, course, and conferences. We've launched O'Reilly Training to expand in the way we engage with our community," said O'Reilly Media Vice President Allen Noren. "And in this increasingly competitive job market, having top-of-the-line technical skills is essential."
These affordable, in-person classes with O'Reilly Media experts are designed to help participants improve their skills and learn important new techniques. The first three one-day Master Classes on JavaScript, Creating High Performance Web Sites, and Project Management are scheduled for March 30 in San Francisco.

The author of JavaScript: The Good Parts, (O'Reilly Media), Crockford is a regular speaker at conferences on advanced JavaScript topics. He serves on the JavaScript 2.0 committee at ECMA.
