I took the intermediate and advanced courses with AppDev (Andy Griebel) and learned plenty. A lot of what I brought home was philosophy (OO, Interface design, etc.), but the course really brought me into the light in subjects like private datasessions, buffering, and client server. There wasn't quite as much meat to the course as I would have hoped, but it was worth it nevertheless. I feel like the advanced course would have been a complete loss if I was not already somewhat comfortable with VFP. Several people who had taken the beginner's course because they needed it got glazy eyed on the last day. My suggestion: spend a month or two with the product to get to know it, skip the beginner's course and then take something more advanced.
