Where can I find training / courses for an experienced web programmer?

Question

IT education

Colleagues!
Faced with the task of finding any training courses or trainings for web programmers.
In our city (Nizhny Novgorod) there is a lot of everything for beginners, but for those who have 5-7 years of experience there is nothing.
Maybe there is something interesting in Moscow? in other cities? any online trainings?
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Well, how would the pros especially why take courses?
And besides, for the most part, they lag behind the realities of web development, take the topic of interest and study it with the help of Google.

Answer 2

Why does an experienced programmer need courses? Courses for zeros. And in general, courses are courses: get a diploma, hang it on the wall, show it to your mother, and in a year you will forget everything that was there without practice (I guarantee). For CSF, of course, go. You have 2 ways: do your project on whatever you like (5-7 years of experience, as it were), move to Moscow and join the ranks of senior developers (you have 5-7 experience).
You don't need all these courses. In fact, they are being imposed on you one way or another (everything you need now can be found when you need it, if you want).
In our profession, as in any other, practice is important.

Answer 3

Know what you need to learn. For example:
1 Assess what problems were on the last 3 projects and what knowledge would help to avoid this
2 What other tools can be learned (from vim to specialized profiling tools). This also includes hotkeys for the IDE you use
3 Study similar modern libraries and frameworks, it is possible that your approaches are no longer so effective
4 Study promising libraries and frameworks that may soon be needed
5 Study fundamentally different programming languages, such as Java/PHP/Ruby( Python)/Erlang/Haskell. With languages ​​come their own concepts and even in the main language your code will improve
6 If it's about web developers, then even among people with 5-7 years of experience, I haven't met many people who really know Javascript and SQL at the same time well, as a rule, one of these things can be tightened and tightened. SQL can also be divided into MySQL, PostgreSQL, MS SQL, Oracle SQL. It is desirable to know the first 2 at least (especially in case of misunderstandings with the future MySQL). + various NOSQL
7 Back to basics (Knuth, algorithms, patterns). Patterns are especially readable after some experience.
8 Something from related disciplines (project management, user interface design, marketing, complex systems architecture)
I.e., the main idea is to find something that you are still new to. A modern programmer needs to know a lot of modern concepts, languages, tools, libraries.
If you want to dig deep into the already chosen favorite technology (for example, the Java language), then there is a direct road to the conference with the availability of relevant reports (Russian and foreign) and books in English.

Answer 4

Dig into the courses on www.intuit.ru/ - if you do not find anything suitable for your specialization, then you will surely find something new and interesting.

Answer 5

And what is there to consider the option of obtaining a certificate.
Well, for example:

• Zend Certified Engineer (if you are a PHP programmer)
  
• Oracle Certified Professional (if you are a Java programmer)
  

The list goes on...
At the same time, these programs also include courses that prepare for the exam.
That is, on the one hand, as a professional, you will be able to get good pieces of paper, which, whatever one may say, will raise your price in the market, and on the other hand, you will be able to expand and deepen your skills.

Answer 6
