iPhone and iPad Apps Development
28th March 2011 - 31st March 2011 - Old Broadcasting House, Leeds
This four day intensive iOS course teaches you how to build apps. Learn from the trainer's real world experience of designing, building, and marketing successful apps.
This 4 day iPhone apps development training course provides everything you need to get up and running with the iPhone SDK and Objective-C so you can build your own apps with confidence.
The course has been fully updated to Xcode4.
You’ll gain a comprehensive grounding in iOS development techniques and concepts, and learn hands-on how to use the major tools and APIs in the iPhone SDK, and how they fit together
Its a practical course so you’ll learn hands-on how be an iOS developer, from the expert - Dave Verwer. Dave has experience in all aspects of designing, developing, shipping and marketing successful iOS apps and he’s great at passing that on to you. Dave describes himself as primarily an iPhone and iPad developer, rather than a full-time trainer, and so has experience in all aspects of designing, developing, shipping and marketing successful iPhone apps - which he passes on in the course. Dave has been developing with the iPhone SDK since it was first released and prior to that developed several applications for Mac OS X
The course runs with a maximum of eight delegates, so you’ll get your own questions answered, whilst training alongside fellow developers - an ideal way to maximise what you’ll get from these four days
nti Leeds is an Apple Authorised Training Centre and this course is run in our Authorised training suite - so you don’t need to bring anything with you, and you can be assured of an excellent training experience
Choose from a selection of dates to fit in with your plans.
We’ve built up over eighteen months’ experience of running this course. We’ve even had one delegate who flew over 10,000 miles to attend. We also run an Android Apps development course.

Course outline:
Day 1
Introduction to iPhone and iPad Development and the Objective-C Language
Day one is primarily focused on Objective-C and covers everything needed to start building iPhone applications. The day covers basic Objective-C syntax and constructs, use of the Xcode IDE as a development tool, the Foundation framework, building Objective-C classes, properties and methods, debugging using Xcode and GDB, and a thorough explanation of memory management on the iPhone.
Day 2
Building a basic iPhone application, Interface Builder, Views, View Controllers & Table Views
Day two starts with building a simple iPhone application then covers the details of views and the iPhone view hierarchy, delegates, Interface Builder, view controllers and architecture techniques to ensure a scalable app, table views, navigation and navigation controllers
Day 3
Application Navigation, Animation and Multi Touch, Deployment, Provisioning and The App Store
Day three covers custom table cells, resources and image handling, animation, touch, some more advanced Objective-C, an in depth look at the development and deployment process, iTunes connect, the App Store and marketing
Day 4
Build a complete iPhone application, Tweet Trends from start to finish in a day
The final day of the course gives students a specification for a simple, but full iPhone application and the task for the day is to build it! All of the concepts needed for this will have been taught by this time but the specifics of how to build the app are available if needed. This is an invaluable opportunity to build a real world application with an experienced developer as mentor. You can even get a sneak preview of what this final application does and how it looks because we uploaded it to the app store!
