“If you want to develop apps on the iphone you need this course. Don't try this on your own, unless you have a couple of months to spare ” —Craeg K Strong - lead developer, Arielpartners.com, attended January 2009 Intensive iPhone Boot Camp in New York'

The iPhone Boot Camp is dedicated to providing the highest quality training possible in iPhone development. We hire only recognized experts in the field with years of experience developing on the Mac - former Apple engineers, creators of bestselling iPhone apps, renown authors of books relating to iPhone development - iPhone and Mac developers that thoroughly know what they are teaching and how best to teach it. A certificate will be awarded upon completion of the course.

Kochan, Objective- C, author of the best seller, Programming in Objective C -2.0 that sold over a million copies. He has authored and co-authored eight other books on Objective-C programming

The three day Intensive workshop from 10am-6pm, a full 24 hours of training, covers the fundamentals and advanced feature of iPhone development, enough material that after the workshop you should be able to develop your own iPhone application and upload it to the AppStore. The workshop is limited in size and features hands on exercises under the supervision of the instructor.

Developers have the option to attend the workshop on any of the six days or the entire six day workshop, according to their knowledge level. Both the Objective-C and SDK train developers from the very basics in iPhone development to the most advanced features.

XCode and the iPhone SDK installed on your Macintosh laptop
An iPhone or iPod Touch, if you have one (optional)
Basic programming knowledge, including object-oriented programming experience, such as Java,, NET, C, Visual Studio
Familiarity with the Mac

Who should attend?
Experienced programmers interested in iPhone application development
People new to Mac development and iPhone development
Why take a workshop when I can read books, attend a lecture watch videos and webinars?
Most people, even those with extensive experience in programming, find the SDK difficult to master. Books and video are great to prepare for a workshop but there is sitll no substitute for a small hands on workshop with other developer, where you can ask questions to an experienced instructor looking over your shoulder as you go through the episodes step by step. Basically it saves you month of time and money.

Our Alumni Network for Work
We don't just offer training. We are also iPhone developers ourselves, as are our alumni. We have an online alumni network where the members post jobs, requests for proposals and form partnerships.
