PyCamp is TriZPUG's Python Boot Camp, which takes a programmer familiar 
with basic programming concepts to the status of Python developer with 
one week of training. If you have previous scripting or programming 
experience and want to step into Python programming as quickly and 
painlessly as possible, this boot camp is for you. PyCamp is also the 
perfect follow-on to Plone Boot Camp: Customizing Plone the previous week.

At Plone Boot Camp: Customizing Plone you will learn the essentials you 
need to build your Plone site and deploy it. This course is the most 
popular in the Plone world--for a good reason: it teaches you practical 
skills in a friendly, hands-on format. This bootcamp is aimed at:
     * people with HTML or web design experience
     * people with some or no Python experience
     * people with some or no Zope/Plone experience
It covers using Plone, customizing, and deploying Plone sites.

At Advanced Plone Boot Camp: Plone 3 Techniques you will learn to build 
a site using the best practices of Plone 3 as well as advance your 
skills in scripting and developing for Plone. The course covers the new 
technologies in Plone 3.0 and 3.1 intended for site integrators and 
developers: our new portlet infrastructure, viewlets, versioning, and a 
friendly introduction to Zope 3 component architecture. Now, updated for 
Plone 3.1! The course is intended for people who have experience with 
the basics of Plone site development and HTML/CSS. It will cover what 
you need to know to take advantage of these new technologies in Plone 3.
