Apparently this class is full, but they will accept your application and might let you know of similar future classes. Be sure to include some experience info - apparently very experienced people get moved to the front of the line.

> COURSE INFORMATION:
> SL-425 Architecting and Designing Java 2 Platform,
> Enterprise Edition Applications
>
> Building robust enterprise applications requires a
> blueprint
> that allows for rapid growth. In addition to learning
> how to
> scale applications, participants in "Architecting and
> Designing Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition
> Applications"
> will learn how to address flexibility, performance,
> maintainability, security, and manageability issues with
> a
> series of general guidelines. Through discussion groups,
> participants will learn how to apply these guidelines
> using
> real-world architectures, frameworks and design
patterns > to
> create Java(TM) 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition
> (
J2EE(TM))
> applications. Based on the material found in the J2EE
> companion book from Sun BluePrints "Designing Enterprise
> Applications" and additional examples drawn from the
> real-world experiences of Sun's Java Professional
> Services,
> this seminar provides a fast-track and immediately
> applicable learning experience for system architects.
>
>
> WHO CAN BENEFIT
>
> Enterprise application architects, system analysts, and
> senior developers who require insight into the J2EE
> "blueprint" model. This course will also be of interest
> to
> independent software vendors (ISVs) and consultants who
> are
> building, deploying, and interfacing with J2EE
> applications.
>
>
> PREREQUISITES
