TGMC Workshop

Recently on 13 november,2009 Mr. Kapil Kulkarni a traineer from IBM visited out university for delivering a workshop on how to manage the project development process using the rational application development tool.

Registration process was started for this event on 11 november, 2009 at around 1 pm. I was surprized to see that within few minutes of announcements of registration links we were at the limit of registrations seats (i.e. 200 seats). good to see such kind of response from students side and i thank all of them who registred or participated in this event. Also still we are on with the event and trying to rearrange the same workshop for the studnets who missed their chance.

This tool is actually used by IBM developers to managed the development of different kind of projects. He started with a very basic concepts regarding the development process and the application architecturr. Then he moved to some of the advanced concepts and introduced about the different kind of architecture based advanced examples. He talked about servlets and beans.

Every thing gone well except. I would like to thanx all the students and faculties who participated in this event and hope everyone will again help us out. Soon their will be a feedback form for this event, do fill that form to improve us.
