    What is covered during the course?

    During this 8-session online course, we’ll take you from the basic concepts like installation, building templates, properly setting up channels, categories, and custom fields to more advanced techniques including using dynamic relationships, adding jQuery effects, setting up powerful workflow and SEO foundation, and integrating 3rd party applications and databases. We’ll also touch upon hosting choices, site optimization, effective data import & entry, managing large content database, and deploying single or multiple-sites.


    Who is the course for?

    Although registration is open to everyone, the course will most benefit freelancers looking to offer EE services, an agency looking to leverage EE for future projects, or a “DIY” small business owner or individual professional who’d like to build his or her own site.


    Who’s teaching the course?

    All classes are taught by Jae Barclay of ejaeDesign LLC. For the past 14 years, Jae has worked with some of the top brands and agencies here and abroad including Samsung, BBC America, Yahoo!, and Estee Lauder. And for the past 4+ years, Jae and his team designed and built over twenty EE-driven sites for large enterprise-level clients as well as growing small businesses, startups, and non-profit organizations as a proud member of the EE Pro Network.

    Jae is also a passionate and lifelong educator, both as a former Professor of Graphic & Interactive Design at the School of Art & Design at Alfred University, and organizer of free Meetups for small business owners in New York City called “Launching Your Website: Getting on the Right Track.

    Would you consider releasing a DVD of the training? Not everyone can set aside the evening hours for 4 Tuesdays/Thursdays in a row.

    Also, consider adding this event to Devot-EE’s Events page, too!

    Hey Michael,

    Great suggestion—we’d love to do a DVD or downloadable sessions, although since the sessions are as much back-and-forth with the students as well as planned instructions, we’re still not sure if the DVD format would work as well. But we’ll definitely chew on the idea.

    Also, we have considered doing a shorter session (2 weeks?) that won’t require as much commitment, and posting a series of short clips (3-5 minutes long) for current and former students to access.

    We did just opened an hourly “private” lessons as well, pretty much coming out of requests to help on a more tactical level that targets your own particular project directly:

    And thanks a bunch for the tip on the Devot-EE’s Events page!

    I took this course in November 2010, I found it one of the best I have ever taken. I have read books and watch screencasts covering EE 2.0, they were OK, but the online interaction and practical nuance of Jae’s program is unsurpassed.

    I liked it so much I am currently enrolled in Creat-ee’s Advanced EE class.
