About Us: The Company

The course was structured in a way [such] that students were learning by doing. This was a much better approach than other courses based mostly on lecture.

About Objects, Inc. is a premier IT training and consulting company headquartered in Reston, VA. We design all of our courses to build measurable skills, and backed them all with our quality guarantee. In addition to our regularly scheduled, open–enrollment classes, we offer private classes at our state-of-the-art facilities, as well as on-site training at the customer's location.

Approach to Learning

Since developers primarily learn by doing, our courses immediately follow short lecture periods with lab exercises so attendees have a chance to get hands-on familiarity with new APIs, language features, etc. as soon as they're introduced. Our courses also emphasize realism in the design of examples and labs. Keeping labs focused on real-world problems makes it easier for students to understand the relevance of new features they're learning, and concrete examples help to quickly put new items in context.

Our courses cover not only the basics, but also some of the trickier things attendees are likely to need to do in real life. It is often possible to save attendees weeks or even months of struggle later on by covering this kind of material in class, plus it allows us to shed greater light on pitfalls and best practices.
