I took this course when it was first offered in July and I learnt quite a bit of info, Brendan is very knowledgeable and I actually picked up a few SEO lessons that would have taken me a while to learn myself.
If you are just getting into CMS or PHP this is the course for you.I redesigned my site using WordPress only six weeks after the course and it has brought me much more work and success.
