Hi Dwayne, Microchip offers that course online. I took it earlier this year, and I thought it was pretty good. The teacher (Bob Smith) did a great job. It's really an intro course, and I did gain a decent understanding of the language, but they don't go into architecture specific areas like interrupts or peripherals. All in all I was quite happy with my investment, I just wish I had more time to play with it afterwards. As it stands I've been too busy keeping up to do much experimenting. Sometime soon I hope! If I was you, and there are other courses you wish to take at the conference, I'd consider taking this one on line. Hope that helps.
