IOS training was interesting and educating. It covered a lot of ground in a short amount of time without feeling rushed.
AboutObjects is a rare gem in the software development world. Their training classes (Objective-C, Swift, & more) are extremely educational. The instructor, Johnathon, is an Objective-C wizard with over 25 years of experience. Would highly recommend both new and experienced iOS developers to take any of their classes.
Really enjoyed the training I received here. Really instructive and engaging. Thanks!
The trainer is great, I really learnt a lot!
I came into the Object-C course with no prior knowledge of C or Objective-C. Jonathan laid out the class in a systematic manner where we started with the basic foundation and then moved towards diving deeper in each subject. From his years of experience, he was able to guide us with his exceptional knowledge of the material.Just beyond having knowledge, he also exudes passion for this field, and it resonates through the way he teaches. I will definitely be recommending this to all my peers that want to learn. Jonathan is an exceptional teacher!
The About Objects team has a deep knowledge of iOS after having worked on Apple platforms for decades. I didn’t just learn how to write an app, I how Apple platforms function from the ground up so I can make more informed programming decisions when building the apps I will go on to create. They took time to answer my questions so I could validate my understanding so I can go forward confident in my ability to apply the knowledge I have learning in future development projects. There are dozens of places you can go to learn how to write an iOS app, but if you want to understand how the app works from the under the hood, choose About Objects.
I cannot recommend About Objects training programs more highly. They are committed, not just to transferring knowledge, but patiently building a foundation and appreciation of lower-level concepts, before delving into more complex topics. Jonathan Lehr is an EXCELLENT teacher; he anticipates his students questions and potential points of confusion, and incorporates this insight into his material. You will not regret choosing About Objects for software development training. Trust me.
I absolutely loved the class I took! Any instructor can teach you how to program but learning with Jonathan taught me why Objective-C is so powerful. We were informed of common mistakes that could arise during development thanks to the years of experience our instructor had. From a programmer’s perspective, this can save a lot of frustration and (more importantly) time. Not only are the lessons rich, they’re laid out in a way to where its actually understandable. Theres also a lot of little shortcuts that Jonathan shared with me that made the iOS programming experience that much more enjoyable. The examples we worked on serve as a strong tool to keep as a reference so in future projects if Im stuck, I have a thorough guide.
I just finished their five day iOS and Objective-C training course. Jonathan is the real deal. He has a depth of expertise you won’t find anywhere else, and this is coming from someone who has been building iOS apps for 8 years. I thought I knew what I was doing, but this course totally changed my understanding of Apple’s platforms. You are guaranteed to improve your skills
Rating the Objective-C iOS programming course: this course was extremely informative and well worth my time. Our instructor, Jonathan, has a ton of experience and had many valuable insights beyond just the curriculum outlined for the course. I would recommend this course if you already have programming experience but would like to learn about Objective-C and iOS.
About Objects is the real deal. I just finished their 5-day iOS Development in Objective-C class and they demonstrated a deep understanding of Apples frameworks, the Objective-C language, and the methods needed to build rock solid apps.I have spent a lot of time studying iOS from a lot of other instructors, and Jonathan was by far the most knowledgeable and approachable instructor I have encountered. Drawing from his extensive experience, Jonathan was able to guide us into the depths of Apples frameworks, reveal their intricacies, and impart a working understanding upon us through hands on examples. I am confident that the lessons I learned will pay off numerous times over my career.The rest of the team at About Objects is smart, capable, and caring.This combination of a magnificent teacher and a great support staff makes their training uniquely valuable, and I highly recommend the class to anyone serious about becoming a world class Apple developer.
I never thought I could learn so much about Objective-C and iOS in such a short time! I have tried learning development in Apples ecosystem before in a self taught manner but found that I wasnt able to make sense of it all. My instructor Jonathan was incredibly knowledgeable in Objective-C and iOS and taught the course in a manner that demystified a bunch of the key concepts at play in the Apple development ecosystem. We started with establishing foundational knowledge in objective-c and how it works underneath the hood. This foundation proved to be very useful for the rest of the week as we dived into using UiKit framework for iOS, as there are many aspects of iOS development that are not immediately clear without knowing how objective-c works.I absolutely recommend this course for iOS developer training!
Coming in with very little knowledge of iOS development and Swift, Jonathan took the group through the language, tools, concepts, and best practices, culminating with practical hands-on labs to tie it all together. I learned an incredible amount during my 7-day course.
Came into the course with nearly no knowledge of Objective C and came out with a lot more confidence and understanding of both Objective C and iOS. Thank you!
I highly recommend Jonathons iOS Development with Objective-C: Comprehensive course. Hes not just teaching you the basics of the language and the framework; but goes in-depth on what Apple is doing and why - all with the knowledge of someone that has years of experience with the tools, and who also has great teaching skills. His breadth of knowledge, enthusiasm and care for showing you what he successfully argues as the best way (e.g. MVP over MVVM, LOL) flat-out made me a better engineer by the end of the course.
Jonathan Lehr from About Objects teaches an incredible course on iOS Development with Swift: Comprehensive. A co-worker and I took this course to brush up on our Swift skills and to learn new industry standards from the App Development community. I highly recommend this course for anyone interested in learning iOS development. Their unique approach to training people caters to all skill levels.The training material takes a bottom-up approach by teaching you the how and why of iOS development. Personally, I feel this is a more successful approach. Developers who take this course, will be well equipped to build upon their newly taught Swift and Objective-C foundation.This type of teaching is successfully achieved by Jonathan and About Objects due to their experience and long history working with Apple going all the way back to the NeXT computing days.I look forward to coming back and take more advanced course with Jonathan and his peers at About Objects.Thank you for teaching us.
I took the “iOS Development with Swift: Comprehensive” course with Jonathan Lehr and About Objects. I highly recommend this course if you are interested in getting a jump start in modern iOS development or even if you’re a relatively experienced iOS developer.The class runs for 7 days. We spent the first two days learning some Swift fundamentals, The remaining 5 days were spent putting our newfound Swift knowledge to use building some iOS apps. Expect to spend a lot of time in Xcode – while About Objects makes sample projects from classes available, you won’t make much use of the sample projects in class. Jonathan will walk you through creating iOS apps completely from scratch instead of using the sample projects.Johnathan is very much into teaching you the “right” way to do things and how Swift, Xcode, Cocoa, and Cocoa Touch work behind the scenes. I’ve been an Objective-C developer off and on for about 6 years and Jonathan was still able to teach me a ton about Xcode and Cocoa. His background in Apple development dates all the way back to NEXTSTEP and because of this, he has an incredible depth of knowledge in the “right” way to do iOS development. He has a knack for showing you a relatively complex way of completing a given task, just to show you how it works behind the scenes, then showing you how to refactor the task to make it a lot simpler. I think that even if you consider yourself a relatively experienced Swift developer and you take this class, Jonathan is going to teach you things you didn’t know. Several times during the week, my colleague and I had several “eureka” moments when Jonathan showed us tricks with Swift or Xcode.In summary, if you want to quickly get up to speed on iOS development, but you want to start off knowing how to do things the right way, you can’t go wrong with training from About Objects. Even if you have some Swift experience, you should still consider their training. Highly recommended.
Very detailed class just wanted more examples for apps but very useful
As a novice to application development, I was not sure what or where I needed to begin to strength my skills to support a demanding DevOps team. After being recommended by Apple engineers to About Objects, Inc. It was clear on the first day of class for iOS Development in Swift, that Jonathan Lehr and his team were the right choice for me. In a few days, I was able to become sufficiently familiar with the general Swift language structure and with the correlation to its Objective-C backbone that makes up iOS development. Throughout the course we cover many topics, ranging from Swift best practices, syntax, concepts, xCode tool sets, Interface Builder and Storyboards. The hands-on attitude and 30 years of experience that Jonathan brought to the table was priceless in guiding me through a comprehensive 7-day course. I look forward to eventually attending more classes with About Objects, Inc as my career progresses.
