RE: Can you help me - Please?

Question

Gary,
I haven't taken one of his training classes, but he does post mail to the
Forte Users Group frequently.
Here is an e-mail address for Stephen McHenry.
Stephen McHenry [SMTP:[email protected]]
The Forte Users Group has a searchable archive thread:
<URL:http://pinehurst.sageit.com/listarchive/>
Mr. Henry will have multiple Forte Users Group postings recorded there which
detail his Forte Training experience, an OOAD course that his company
offers, as well as helpful information that he has provided to other members
of the Forte Users Group.
Hope this helps.

Hi, I'm new here. I just signed up because I just found out about the
group
and I'm hoping you can help me.
I just found out that Mark Smith, who usually teaches the design course
at
Fort&eacute; is not going to be teaching the next one. From what I've been
told,
Mark is the only one left who was trained by the original author of the
course how to teach it right. I guess there were others, but they've all
left Fort&eacute; by now. If this is true, that means that the upcoming course
is
going to be taught by some untrained stand-in. I just think it's real
crappy that Fort&eacute; is trying to keep all this quiet until after you can't
drop out of the course and get your money back.
I'm tired of getting second rate instructors for training course that we
spend good money for. I understand that the expert - the guy that wrote
the
course - still teaches. Can anyone tell me how to get in touch with
him?
I've been told his name is Stephen McHenry and that he's totally the
best
instructor for this stuff.
Also, does anyone know why he stopped teaching for Fort&eacute;?
If anybody can help me, I'd really appreciate it.

Answer 1

Ian --
I agree wholeheartedly with your reply. There are countless many qualified for
such a course and not just working for Forte either, although thats a good
place to start.

Don't you think you are being a little unfair?
Forte has many employees who are more than capable of teaching the
design course not all of whom where taught by the original author.
Good teachers will use their own experiences when presenting
a course and not simply present the thoughts of others.
The Forte design course specifically focuses on the issues of designing
large scale distributed applications an area where I would hope all Forte
employees have significant experience. However much of the design
course is not unique to Forte presenting as it does the best industry
practice
borrowing ideas from Jacobson, Booch and Rumbaugh among others.
These skills can and have been acquired by consultants and trainers prior
to joining Forte and Forte is a much richer company for this input.
