Two of my colleagues have been to the OOP conference in Munich this year. It,s quite expensive an takes place once a year (end of January, begin of February?) in Munich. According to them it's worth visiting.
Another event is the SoCraTes in Soltau, end of August. This is said to be interesting as well (no personal experience, just hearsay)

Thanks, i'll get my hands on that. Sounds promising

You're welcome. If I find other information on conferences etc. (I'm looking for such a thing myself), I'll write a message to you.

Just read up this one first - Grady Booch - OOAD[^]
Getting into C# or any other OO Language without understanding OOAD is like going for snorkeling in the pacific ocean. You're really not going to get to the depths. You'll end up using C# as a RAD tool like VB.
Design Patters- I feel, once you are strong with OOAD, patterns would naturally knock your doors. You just strive to do something best with OOAD, you'll find that it's called some X-pattern on the books. Then you can go ahead and read a lot of useless cosmetic patters for your interviews & Code obfuscation sake (just joking)
People getting into Design patterns straight came back like public void UnderstandDesignPatters(); So first thing - OOAD!

I'm not 100% sure but i guess i am already on the path where patterns knock on my door

And one from the Lounge![^] This mate has written well about using C# as an OO Language. And its' FREE! It's put in simple language. For sure this would be useful for you. Keep it in your ToDo list. And may be send your boss a copy.

I went to several; anyone offering a training to me will first have to prove that the training is worth more than a book.
HobbyProggy wrote: Any suggestions how to approach that? Focus on the value it may add; you'd be writing in a more similar style, and it would be easier to work with each others' code. Would be good for the team, and the company, if each of you had the same minimal certification.
HobbyProggy wrote: And also how to tell my boss he can't code? If you don't need the job then you could be blunt. Otherwise, I suggest you point out that "everyone" could improve from such a training without going into much detail.

I prefer the REPL process:
Read a book
Evaluate what I learned
Program an example of what I learned
Loop, with the next item to learn
Sander's[^] book looks actually really good.

On the job training and self taught (Youtube, tech sites and forums, books, etc.).
I have heard tech conferences are good if you approach it purely for learning and not socializing and if your company/you have the money for travel, lodging, food, and conference - $$$$$.

Will German language be a barrier? In most of the cases in Germany, the training will be in local language only, only in few exceptions it would be in English.
cheers,

My boss has also a very bad coding style, but this has never been a problem, as we do not let it touch the source code.

Problems is he already wrote several stuff here and now since he finishes his parts he will try to get hand on ours.

The only sort of training you can take to solve a bad boss problem is: Resume Writing 101.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I would highly recommend the books of Martin Fowler on refactoring.

I haven't used this site "Bitnami" before, but just had to download an opensource software. Got directed through a forum. Once it's downloaded, my AV software promptly quarantined it saying That's BS that you've downloaded!. It was having a malware packed with the installer .exe.
That site's "looks" were looking a bit credible, but looks went deceptive yet again, it's yet another crap like CNet & Sourceforge.

Not late for me, never heard of that page. Thanks for the warning.

Thanks for the advice, I'll promptly push it in my hosts file.
Adding my 2 cents: softonic is crapware too and consisntent source of malware, still Google puts it before the freaking original sites even for open source and freeware. Had to host it out to prevent my once-tech-savy dad to fall for it.
On another note, what problem has Sourceforge? I always downloaded safely without any registration nor malware, it is the official site of many Open Source projects (I agree most of them are crappy, still there are exceptions).
