"We have expanded upon the curriculum to include additional examples,

The Philosophy of Scripting covers intermediate and advanced
scripting and calculations over a five day period. Developed from the
wildly popular Scriptology book and CD ROM, these courses are aimed
at in-house and commercial developers who want to develop
professional solutions as well as pass the certification examination.

"These classes take advantage of the Philosophy of FileMaker design
approach", says John Mark Osborne. "The Philosophy of FileMaker
teaches you how to think in FileMaker Pro rather than regurgitate
techniques. This enables each developer to solve his own unique
problems".

Here is what a few students have to say about the Philosophy of
Scripting hands-on training courses:

"I'm sure you've heard it MANY times before but... an outstanding
course. Your humor and wit are only matched by your knowledge." -
Steve Monroe

"I don't recall a single question that could not be answered by one
of you off the top of your head. I would highly recommend any class
you offered." - Bruce Littrell
