The Walking TDD
Didn't you hear the news? TDD is dead. Yet many developers rely on it for quality code. Come join the zombie apocalypse and learn and understand TDD, what sets it apart from unit testing after the fact, what to do when you need to update code, effective mocking, automatically generating test data and lots of it, leaving code alone and respecting your work, and more
Scala Koans - A New & Fun Way to Learn Scala (Bring a Laptop)
Have you looked into Scala? Scala is a new object-functional JVM language. It is statically typed and type inferred. It is multi-paradigm and supports both object oriented and functional programming. And it happens to be my favorite programming language.
If you are interested in Scala, how you are planning to learn Scala? You probably are going to pick up a book or two and follow through some examples. And hopefully some point down the line you will learn the language, its syntax and if you get excited enough maybe build large applications using it. But what if I tell you that there is a better path to enlightenment in order to learn Scala?

Scala for Java Developers All Day Workshop (Laptops Required)
A full day, Scala hands-on workshop, that takes your typical Java code that you use day after day, and transforms into idiomatic functional Scala code. The result? Cleaner and more concise code.
