I am very happy to announce a 2 day public PowerShell learning event. In association with the fine people behind the Techmentor conference, I will be presenting a 2 day PowerShell Scripting workshop in Dallas, TX on February 4-5, 2019. There is an option to attend virtually, but you'll really get the most out of the class if you can attend in person. While this isn't intended as a traditional, instructor led class with formal exercises and a manual, there will be a lot of demonstrations, and you are welcome to follow along on your own laptop.

The event will focus on improving your scripting skills on Windows PowerShell 5.1. Although, we will take a look at the challenges of cross platform scripting with PowerShell Core. The class assumes you have some fundamental PowerShell skills, including writing simple scripts and functions. My goal is to get you to the next level. I don't do many public events and this will be 2 solid days of content. It is one thing to read about it in the Month of Lunches books. This is your opportunity to hear and see it live. You can expect minimum PowerPoint and maximum PowerShell.
