<p>If you are arriving early to OSCON, and you have a Linux problem that needs fixing, or you are a wizard who can help others, escape from the pesky sunshine and join us at the monthly Linux Clinic at Free Geek at 1731 S.E. 10th in Portland, about 20 blocks south of the convention center. The main facility is closed, but we have access to the classroom in the southeast corner.</p>
<p>We will have wireless, ethernet, distros, coffee, cookies, and Penguinos, the premier penguin-themed mexican cupcake. We run until 5 PM, though in honor of OSCON we may move proceedings to the Lucky Labrador Brew Pub or Jax Bar, local open source hangouts that serve food and beer.</p>
<p>For more information, look at the PLUG wiki or contact Keith Lofstrom at keithl (AT) keithl (DOT) com</p>

<p>DorkbotPDX introduces free Pure Data workshop series</p>
<p>We are excited to announce a new workshop series devoted to Pure Data (Pd). <a href="http://puredata.info">http://puredata.info</a>.</p>
<p>"Pd (aka Pure Data) is a real-time graphical programming environment for audio, video, and graphical processing. It is the third major branch of the family of patcher programming languages known as Max (Max/FTS, ISPW Max, Max/MSP, jMax, etc.) originally developed by Miller Puckette and company at IRCAM."</p>
<p>Pure Data is free [FLOSS] software - meaning there is no charge for the download and it is open source, (free/libre). It runs wonderfully on Mac, Linux, Windows - so bring any laptop. Come with Pd-extended installed if possible - otherwise come a little early for installation assistance. The workshop is free as well!</p>
<p>We will will be doing several workshops starting from the ground up - and ranging topics as advanced as there is interest for.</p>
<p>Workshop One will be held May 17th. No prior Pd or programming knowledge is required, but expect to leave with functional knowledge of how to use Pd. The outline in progress can be found here:
<a href="http://dorkbotpdx.org/wiki/pd_workshop_2009_outline">http://dorkbotpdx.org/wiki/pd_workshop_2009_outline</a>.</p>
<p>But we want to hear from you! We'd love to get a rough idea of how many people are interested in attending.</p>
<p>Do you use Pd? Do you use similar commercial software like Max/MSP? Are you interested in learning Pd? Why? What are some of your ideas?</p>
<p>Pd is an incredibly open-ended platform so we're trying to get an idea of where the majority's (if there is a majority) interests lie.... Physical Interfaces for music? Live DSP? Generative composition? Video? Dance? Robotic cat toys? Feedforward most welcome!</p>
<p>Bring a laptop with Pd-extended installed, if possible. Otherwise come a little early for installation help! <a href="http://puredata.info">http://puredata.info</a>.</p>
<p>Seating is limited to about 35, so please rsvp at <a href="http://dorkbotpdx.org/pd_rsvp">http://dorkbotpdx.org/pd_rsvp</a> or email jason@noisybox_net or coldham@mac_com.</p>

<p>Learn to Make Interactive Video with your Mac!</p>
<p>Free.
Reserve your space on Yahoo Upcoming <a href="http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/2776974/">http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/2776974/</a></p>
<p>We are very lucky to have Surya Buchwald (also known as Momo the Monster) teaching a Quartz Composer workshop.</p>
<p>Quartz Composer (QC) is a free, powerful easy-to-use visual programming language for the Apple Macintosh. This workshop will take you from starting the program for the first time to building your own Interactive scene controlled with a gamepad. You’ll learn how to teach yourself QC, and meet others with whom you can collaborate and troubleshoot. No programming experience necessary.</p>
<p>For more information about QC, see:
<a href="http://developer.apple.com/mac/articles/graphicsmedia/quartzcomposerinleopard.html">http://developer.apple.com/mac/articles/graphicsmedia/quartzcomposerinleopard.html</a>
To play with an interactive video piece (written by Surya), go to <a href="http://momopro.com/stage/qc/">http://momopro.com/stage/qc/</a> — click and hold your mouse on the video and move it around to control the video.</p>
<p>Immediately following the QC workshop, from 3-6pm, we will have a meeting of the NorthWest AudioVisualists, a new group of artists, musicians, animators, and video jockeys, which will include live performances using QC. See <a href="http://nwav.org">http://nwav.org</a> for more information.</p>
<p>Required:</p>
<p>Macintosh computer running 10.5 (Leopard). Anything from a G4 iBook to a Mac Pro tower will work.</p>
<p>Gamepad (Mac-compatible). We recommend the Logitech Dual Action (either Apple Only or USB), which looks like a Playstation controller and can be purchased for $20 (from GameStop, Fred Meyer, Fry’s, Best Buy, etc.). You can use any USB controller or joystick, but this one will be the easiest with which to follow along.</p>
<p>XCode - This can be installed from your System DVD that came with your computer - it used to be called ‘Developer Tools’. It will install the components needed to develop software on your machine, including our Quartz Composer program. After installing, do a system update.</p>

<p>Join professional photographer Aaron Hockley for a workshop that's all about the awesomeness that is Flickr. Power Flickr is a 2-hour discussion on using Flickr for all sorts of purposes beyond simple image hosting.</p>
<pre><code> We'll talk about a wide range of tips and tricks, aimed at both folks wanting to promote their photography as well as those looking to find the best material on Flickr. There will be a focus on Flickr's community features including how to network with other Flickr users with similar interests.
A sample of topics to be discussed:
- Flickr's contacts features explained
- how to find the best photos on Flickr
- all about Explore, what it is and tips for getting noticed
- how to make sure your contacts see your best photos
- finding relevant communities to contribute and interact
- driving traffic to your Flickr stream, via Flickr
- sharing your Flickr content elsewhere including blogs and slideshows
- third party tools and Greasemonkey scripts
I'm also open to exploring Flickr topics suggested by you! Leave a comment here with your question or area of interest and I'll try to address as many as possible during the evening.
How much is the workshop fee? That's up to you. No fee will be collected beforehand... attend the workshop and then choose how much to donate afterwards. We'll be able to accept cash payment onsite or you can contribute electronically with a credit card (payment info will be provided at the workshop).
Please RSVP <a href="<a href="http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/2718162/">http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/2718162/</a>">on Upcoming</a> so that we have a general headcount .
Bring your laptop (or not). All skill levels are welcome although a basic familiarity with Flickr will be helpful. Any questions? <a href="mailto:<a href="mailto:aaron@hockleyphoto.com">aaron@hockleyphoto.com</a>">Drop Aaron an email</a>.

<p>This workshop is the first in a series of workshops on how to use microcontrollers to, well, control things.</p>
<p>You’ve purchased an Arudino-compatible board or completed the Audino Cult Induction, so now it’s time to make your board actually do something. This monthly workshop covers simple but useful circuits to connect to the pins and how to control those circuits using the Arduino language.</p>
<p>The first workshop is on October 5 from 7 to 9pm at TechShop in Beaverton. The class will be held in the upstairs classroom (the “Hack Hut“).</p>
<p>To sign up, go to <a href="http://www.pjrc.com/store/workshop.html">http://www.pjrc.com/store/workshop.html</a></p>
<p>Cost of each workshop is $10. You will also need to have:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>an Arduino-compatible microcontroller board, such as the Dorkboard from the Arduino Cult Induction (with the pins installed so you can use it in a solderless breadboard), a Teensy, etc.</p></li>
<li><p>a USB cable for your board</p></li>
<li><p>a solderless breadboard</p></li>
</ul>
<p>You can purchase a complete kit that includes all these (Teensy, breadboard, USB cable, plus the first workshop), for $40 from the same site. What a deal!</p>
<p>You should also bring a notebook computer with the Arduino software installed, or come a half-hour early and we will help you install the software on your computer. Finally, bring wire strippers/cutters and some wire. We will have some multimeters, but feel free to bring your own.</p>
<p>If you have any questions, email Paul Stoffregen – <a href="mailto:paul@pjrc.com">paul@pjrc.com</a></p>

<p>TechAmerica's Technology and IP Committee presents a workshop on patent basics.</p>
<p>This 4-hour workshop will describe, in depth, the entire patent system, from its reason for existence to how to create strong patents as valuable corporate assets.</p>
<p>During the first hour of the workshop you will learn:
- Why the US has an intellectual property system
- How patents relate to other forms of intellectual property
- How patents are used both offensively and defensively</p>
<p>In addition, three small-group sessions will provide access, in a non-threatening, teaching environment, to industry veterans who will answer questions specific to your industry or business.</p>
<p>SMALL GROUP BREAK-OUT SESSIONS:
Steps to take before filing a patent application (led by Matthew Rabdau, Tektronix and Thaine Allison, MTI, Inc.)
- When and how to document inventions
- How to decide whether a patent application should be filed
- How to work with inside or outside patent counsel</p>
<p>How to draft a patent application (led by Jim Stewart, Ater Wynne LLP and Rick Boyd, Ater Wynne LLP)
- How to develop an application that will ultimately issue as a patent
- Why are claims so hard to read (and how to read them)</p>
<p>How to successfully navigate an application through the Patent Office (led by Kevin Ross, Marger Johnson & McCollom PC and Joe Makuch, Marger Johnson & McCollom PC)
- How examiners use "Prior Art"
- How to best respond to Patent Office rejections
- How to prosecute a patent that will withstand an invalidity attack</p>
<p>Finally, participants will take home a packet of valuable materials specific to developing an in-house patent system.</p>
<p>Who shoud attend:
- Engineers new to the patent system
- Engineering managers
- Managers having IP responsibility
- VCs who seek in-depth knowledge about the patent system
- Small business owners and entrepreneurs</p>
<p>Thank you Marger Johnson & McCollom PC for sponsoring this event.</p>

<p>Entrepreneur Programs Help Individuals
and Businesses Survive and Thrive Amid Recession</p>
<p>--A program to help dislocated workers explore and expand their potential as entrepreneurs--</p>
<p>Building a strong business future in Washington County is the focus of a new business incubator located in downtown Hillsboro: Green Sustainable Business Accelerator (GSBA).</p>
<p>GSBA offers a new approach to successful entrepreneurship. Instead of fruitless job searches, sending out dozens of resumes and experiencing the reality that a job might be unattainable in the present economy, we offer hope and help to those who would like to take a different approach by creating their own business. Those who embark on that venture need a strong support network and mentoring to be successful. GSBA offers that and more.</p>
<p>The Kauffman FastTrac® LaunchPad initiative is being offered in response to the many workers who have lost their jobs and businesses that are struggling due to the current economic environment. It is a proven fact that entrepreneurship plays a key role in getting America back on the road to recovery. Over 300,000 entrepreneurs have participated in FastTrac® programs.</p>
<p>To apply for the program, or to receive more information, please visit: <a href="http://www.gsbaccelerator.org/future.html">http://www.gsbaccelerator.org/future.html</a>

<p>Join OEN and speaker Naomi Derner for an OEN Workshop Thursday, March 4th from 4:00-6:00 P.M.</p>
<p>As an early stage entrepreneur looking for the first round of funding, one of the most daunting tasks may be determining the valuation of your company. In this workshop, we will cover the basics of valuing a seed or launch stage company, and answer some questions, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>Who sets the valuation - the company or the investor?</li>
<li>What does pre-money and post-money valuation mean? How do I calculate it?</li>
<li>How do I value my company if we don’t yet have revenues?</li>
<li>How do investors determine the valuation?</li>
<li>How have valuations changed in the economic downturn?</li>
</ul>
<p>We'll explain the terminology, demystify the math and explain some of the ways that valuation is set during the funding process. There will be plenty of time for Q&A, so come armed with your questions and be ready to participate in a lively discussion about valuing early stage companies.</p>

<p>The New Communicators is a three-day series of events exploring the ways we communicate with each other. It is an open forum for discussion, education and inspiration, free of charge. * * * In 2007 Alex Linsker walked up to strangers in New York City’s Union Square Park and said, “I’ll give you $5 if in five minutes or less we can’t figure out what to do about an upcoming situation you aren’t looking forward to.” It didn’t cost him too much to develop a set of questions. As a radio interviewer summarized, “Exciting Strengths that you find in one area of your life can then be extrapolated to all areas of life, and we can use them in really any project or goal we’ve created.”</p>
<p>In this workshop, we’ll apply strengths to what’s important to you at work or in life. We will walk through exercises, practice asking the questions and grow the way we think.</p>
<p>Join us on Thursday to explore your exciting strengths and take home a new approach to dealing with challenges and situations that cause anxiety.</p>
<p>RSVP to <a href="mailto:Alex@AlexLinsker.com">Alex@AlexLinsker.com</a> or 503 468-3950</p>

<p>Revenue and profits are, of course, the lifeblood of any business. One of the primary goals for entrepreneurs when they start a company is to get to a sustainable level of revenues and to get to profitability. Once those goals are reached, however, revenue growth becomes a prime imperative for most entrepreneurs, especially those hoping to raise capital or sell their company some day. How fast you can grow your revenues is a function of your industry, your products, and your resources but it may be possible for you to create a sales culture in which you can try and double your sales each year independent of those external factors.</p>
<p>In this OEN workshop, led by MergerTech CEO, Nitin Khanna, you’ll learn why exponential growth can be very good for your company and 10 tips on how to double your revenue every year.</p>
<p>Limit 20 attendees.</p>
<p>Speaker: Nitin Khanna
Nitin Khanna is the CEO of MergerTech Advisors, a boutique investment bank that facilitates mergers and acquisitions for technology companies with less than $100MM in revenue.</p>
<p>Prior to MergerTech, Mr. Khanna was the founder, Chairman and CEO of Saber Corp. a Portland based national firm focused on providing technology solutions to government clients. Mr. Khanna started Saber in July 1998 and helped grow it a minimum of 50% each year. Some of the highlights of Saber’s growth included the Inc. 500 award in both 2006 and 2007, the Deloitte Fast 500 award, and being #1 on Oregon’s Fastest Growing Companies list in 2007.</p>
<p>Saber's dramatic growth led to a significant investment in the company by Accel-KKR Private Equity in 2005 with an eventual sale of the company for $460MM to EDS in December 2007 (Saber’s revenues were $120MM and pre-tax earnings were $21MM in 2007). S</p>
<p>Mr. Khanna currently serves on the board of directors of a diverse range of non-profit, startup, and public companies in both the US and Europe, including Saber Swiss Holdings AG, NAVTEQ Advisory Board, Freewire Broadband, eROI, and ResponderLife. He is also active with MercyCorps and is a mentor to several entrepreneurs in the Portland area.</p>
<p>Mr. Khanna has a Master’s and Bachelor's of Engineering from Purdue University. He resides in Portland and with his children Natasha and Madox.</p>

<p>I'm putting on a workshop for freelance software developers.</p>
<p>The workshop is non-technical -- instead of languages and frameworks, we're focusing on helping freelancers find more opportunities, write better proposals, improve client relationships, and dispelling the FUD of going out on one's own. We'll have a couple of good panel discussions, and I'll be sticking around late into the evening to work with people one-on-one. Food and drinks will be provided (including free beer), and you'll also receive over $300 in discounts on services for freelancers.</p>
<p>Interested? Head over to <a href="http://i26r.com/">http://i26r.com/</a> to register, or learn more about what we're doing.</p>

<p>Join us in Portland, OR, on June 14, 2011, for the 3rd Workshop on I/O Virtualization. Virtualization technology has grown beyond server systems to include desktops, notebooks, and even mobile devices. The rich settings in which virtualized systems are used range from cloud computing infrastructures requiring access to high-end I/O devices like GPUs and networks to the many devices present in embedded and mobile systems. While I/O systems have a long history of using abstraction to shield applications from the intricacies of devices and storage systems, the WIOV '11 workshop's focus is on the interplay of I/O with virtualization and cloud technologies. Our goal is to provide a forum to discuss the impact and challenges of I/O virtualization along multiple dimensions.</p>

<p>Join us in Portland, OR, June 14–15, 2011, for the 3rd USENIX Workshop on Hot Topics in Cloud Computing. HotCloud brings together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry working on cloud computing technologies. Cloud computing has evolved over the years from a basic IT infrastructure (data centers) to platform as a service (PaaS), and it includes both software as a service (SaaS) and enabling services to be deployed on a hosted infrastructure (IaaS). We believe that cloud computing will benefit from close interaction between researchers and industry practitioners, so that the research can inform current deployments and deployment challenges can inform new research. In support of this, HotCloud will provide a forum for both academics and practitioners to share their experience, leverage each other's perspectives, and identify new/emerging "hot" trends in this important area.</p>

<p>Jumpstart your business!</p>
<p>Here's what Tom Peters, author of In Search of Excellence and The Little BIG Things has to say about Howard's book:</p>
<p>"To call Your Business Brickyard a 'bible' would not be an exaggeration. Doesn't belong on your Kindle or bookshelf - belongs in your pocket for permanent and immediate reference."</p>
<p>You not only get to meet the author of this book, but attend his workshop, learn about his ideas first-hand and get a free pdf version of the book.</p>
<p>Howard Mann, author of "Your Business Brickyard" has collected twelve essentials to any business foundation based on his experiences as an entrepreneur. Mann shows you how to get back to basics, reconnect with your purpose, and grow your business, instead of getting stuck following the latest trend or "Me too" fad. You will learn how to unlock your company's true potential instead of playing catch-up with your competitors.</p>
<p>When you're at an entrepreneurial roadblock, this is the book you need to reboot your thinking and get you back on the right road," says Andy Sernovitz, Author, Word of Mouth Marketing: How Smart Companies Get People Talking.</p>

<p>In this OEN CEO Roundtable, Nitin will talk about the HR philosophy, culture, policies, and tactics that allowed Saber to grow from 20 employees to 1200 with zero voluntary separations from the company in its first 8 years. More importantly, 100% of the management team that drove this growth were promoted from within (programmers to executives) thus keeping our compensation and recruiting costs amongst the lowest in the industry.</p>
<p>Open only to CEOs or Presidents of currently operating companies that have employees. Boxed lunch will be served. This program is limited to 12 participants, and is available on a first-come, first-served basis.</p>
<p>Who should attend this event: CEOs and VP of HR for current and future high growth companies though any CEO that wants to build a company with a fabulous performance based culture would benefit from this event.</p>
<p>To register for this event, please call Kirsten Ringen, OEN Director of Membership Services, at 503-222-2270 x 113.</p>
<p>Speaker: Nitin Khanna, CEO, MergerTech

<p>THANK YOU to our sponsors: ProKarma and Agile Open Northwest!!</p>
<p>For any code base there comes a time when you want (or need) to change it. If your changes are extensive, it’s easy to get lost in a jungle of dependencies or on a sea of broken code. Ultimately, you might just give up and shove it away under the legacy label. Instead of doing that, use "The Mikado Method," a systematic approach to reclaim your code. The method helps you visualize, prepare, and perform business-value focused changes, while delivering, and without having a broken code-base in the process. It enhances team communication, collaboration and learning, and helps individuals stay on track.</p>
<p><a href="http://mikadomethod.wordpress.com/book/">http://mikadomethod.wordpress.com/book/</a></p>
<p>For: Lead developers, architects, programming coaches, or anyone who wants to get some serious hands-on practice on how to work their way out of messy code while keeping the delivery frequency and business value focus.</p>
<p>Join Ola Ellnestam, founder of Agical.se and author of The Mikado Method, as he leads the group through exploring techniques for restructuring difficult-t0-work-with code. Ola likes to combine people, technology and business which is best done with simple means and flexible processes. More than that he likes to share his knowledge and experiences because that’s how new insights are created according to him. <a href="http://ellnestam.wordpress.com/">http://ellnestam.wordpress.com/</a></p>

<p>As an early stage entrepreneur looking for the first round of funding, one of the most daunting tasks may be determining the valuation of your company. In this workshop, we will cover the basics of valuing a seed or launch stage company, and answer some questions, such as:</p>
<p>Who sets the valuation - the company or the investor?</p>
<p>What does pre-money and post-money valuation mean? How do I calculate it?</p>
<p>How do I estimate a premoney value for my company if we don’t yet have revenues?</p>
<p>How do investors determine the valuation?</p>
<p>Recent trends in valuation for Portland start ups</p>
<p>We'll explain the terminology, demystify the math and explain some of the ways that valuation is set during the funding process. There will be plenty of time for Q&A, so come armed with your questions and be ready to participate in a lively discussion about valuing early stage companies.</p>

<p>Besides employee payroll, "Office, Industrial, or Retail Space" is usually a company's highest business expense. Yet many entrepreneurs put this on the back burner and deal with their space needs at the last minute.</p>
<p>This workshop will cover what you need to know when your company is growing and you are ready to take the next step for new space or ready to expand/relocate from your current location. This session will help you plan, as well as begin thinking of future space needs so you do not lose your leverage with landlords or get thrown into a space that will cost you and your investors money that could and should be used towards other business expenses.</p>
<p>Topics covered in this session will be:</p>
<p>Timeline for the real estate process</p>
<p>Lease terms</p>
<p>Typical length of leases and expectations for Tenant Improvements</p>
<p>Costs the Landlord should pick up, NOT the company</p>
<p>Costs other than the rent you should expect</p>
<p>Typical steps during the real estate process</p>
<p>Presenter: Josh Schweitz</p>

<p>This workshop is a somewhat dense guided run through the first three chapters of <strong>Getting Started with Django</strong>, the video web series from <strong>Kenneth Love</strong> (and funded by the wonderful Python community last year on Kickstarter!). We'll cover creating a project with an eye to maintainability and reusability (are those even words?!), testing that project, and even deploying it to Heroku.</p>
<p><em>Before the event: please do the Django tutorial in your own time to familiarize yourself with the basic concepts. If you would like help and/or would rather do this in a social setting, come to the Saturday Hack Day July 6th!</em></p>
<p>More details forthcoming!</p>

<p>This workshop is a 10 hour movement intensive, presented over two consecutive days. You will learn to use the techniques and insights of theater and dance to discover new ways to find and expand your center. You do not need to be a performer; you only need to be committed to expanding your choice of creative movement through the discovery of your true core.
Dates: October 5th & 6th, 2013
Time: 11am- 4pm each day
Location: Lightbox Kulturhaus, 2027 NE MLK Blvd, Portland (enter through glass doors, behind Tiny's Coffee)
Cost: $111
Spaces are limited so register soon!</p>
<p>Instructor: Jacob Mooney
This workshop is for actors, dancers, musicians, and anyone who wants to express themselves more fully and freely. We will draw from physical theater, butoh, clown, modern dance, and myth. We will cultivate presence, awareness and potency in both our performances and in our lives. We will inspire ourselves to walk our edges, push our limits, and dive deep within ourselves. Through this work we hope to connect with other creative people who can laugh together, work together, and collaborate on future initiatives based upon the foundation we build in these sessions. Jacob is an actor, dancer, clown and stilt performer. He has studied with Lume Theater in Brazil, Smascherati clown theater in Italy, Yumiko Yoshioka of butoh dance company Ten Pen CHii. Jacob has also trained and performed with the International Theater Collective, Berlin- based Grotest Maru, and the Carpet Bag Brigade stilt theater company. Jacob also directed the Slippery Theater Stilt company in Portland, OR and is the current director of the New Cascadia Clown Army.</p>

<p>Our first Themed Open House: the theme being hacking sound/music. No need to stick to the theme if you have a different kind of project you're working on.</p>
<p>Bring a project your working on or just come and mix with other folks who like making their own sound and instruments. Real informal.
Dave is gonna bring 3 Mixtape Alpha boards plus parts anyone who's interested can build one with him.</p>
<p>OR
bring your own project! Some of us will be chatting with folks who are interested about organizing a build a synthesizer workshop. If you've got ideas or interest in that come on down and help us shape it.

<p>What’s making you feel lost in your marketing?</p>
<p>Your Brand, your Marketing, is one of those things that feels like it should be easy; people act like it should come naturally. You try, but indecision paralyzes you, and everything sounds over-the-top, too weak, or just …sigh… weird.</p>
<p>So, where to start? To kickstart? To Re-Start?</p>
<p>You’ve got the passion, you love what you do, and hell, quite frankly, the world needs you. (If only they knew about you.)</p>
<p>Enter Green Rising. Why pay big, fancy agency fees, when DIY is way more fun? We’ll teach you everything we know (and can fit into 2 days), so you can up your game, get focused, and share your inner powerhouse with the rest of the world.</p>
<p>You deserve it.</p>
<p>On day 1 of Brand Camp you’ll learn how to:</p>
<p>…articulate the WHY of what you do
…find your best customers
…stand. out.</p>
<p>How can we top that?</p>
<p>On day 2, you’ll learn how to:</p>
<p>…carry out your vision on your own terms with the basics of marketing and social media (insta-what?), and make real, live connections to experts in graphic design, web design, photography and more.
-Learn + Do = Marketing ready-to-go</p>
<p>You will work intensively to sharpen your marketing tools and tactical implementation, all while making great connections within a small class size. Be prepared to have homework every week and really get to know your business in a new way.</p>
<p>When: Nov. 5th (session 1) & Nov. 19th (session 2)</p>
<p>Where: 1306 NW Hoyt St. #300, Portland, OR 97209</p>
<p>Pricing: $150 for one session, $250 if you sign up for both at the same time (includes lunch @ Paragon)</p>

<h1>Artists, Musicians, Performers, & Culture Makers YOU NEED The Secret Knowledge of Poster Design</h1>
<p>Learn to make eye-catching posters using your computer and free layout software (scribus).</p>
<p>$25</p>
<p>Sunday February 23rd 2pm – 6pm (instruction starts at 3pm, see schedule below)</p>
<h3>About this workshop</h3>
<p>Layout software is the key to making professional-looking posters and promotional graphics to promote your work (art/music/babysitting/etc). We’ll be using a great free program called Scribus to make basic layouts that look great.</p>
<p>Secret Knowledge offers workshops aimed at empowering creative people. Attendees will come away with skills they can really use. Instruction will follow an inquiry-based, hands-on approach to learning. That means we’ll provide instruction on the basics of how to make posters and graphics layouts, attendees will participate in a work session designing some real posters that they expect to use (we hope) to promote something, and additional instruction will address the specific creative goals of attendees which arise during the work session.
What to bring</p>
<p>Bring your Linux, Windows, or Macintosh laptop computer to the class. A limited number of loaner laptops can be made available, please ask in advance of the class if you will need one.</p>
<p>Instructions for installing Scribus will be provided to you ahead of the class and Secret Knowledge will host an installation party from 2pm – 3pm before the start of instruction for those who need assistance installing software.</p>
<h3>Schedule</h3>
<p>2pm – 3pm Install Party</p>
<p>3pm – 4:30pm Software Instruction</p>
<p>4:30pm – 6pm Poster Designing (work session & inquiry-based instruction)</p>
<h3>Location</h3>
<p>This Secret Knowledge workshop is generously hosted at OpenSourcery – technology for good.</p>
<p>OpenSourcery, 1636 Northwest Lovejoy Street, Portland, OR 97209</p>
<h3>Instructor</h3>
<p>This workshop will be lead by Mr.Noah Kleiman of Secret Knowledge.</p>

<p>This event is open to the public.</p>
<p>MIDI & Music Tech Clinic is a drop-in event for troubleshooting MIDI/music tech difficulties. Come to learn, to teach, or to share hardware, software, and even recording knowledge.</p>
<p>Format:</p>
<p>• Bring the full make and model of each piece of gear and the manual if you have it ("I have a Roland SH-01 Synthesizer").</p>
<p>• Know your use case or questions ("I want to use an expression pedal to modulate the vibrato on my synth patch").
• "Experts" will be on-hand.
• Laptops or other small pieces of gear welcome. A small set of speakers will be available. Sounds should be no louder than the volume of speaking for the library's sake.</p>

<p>Forge Portland is proud to be hosting the next event our Brown Bag Lunch Series featuring Mike Kalkofen. Twice a month we bring in experienced professionals to host a Q&A conversation on specific topics. These lunches are a great chance to meet like-minded people and expand your network and community at our beautiful downtown location.</p>
<p>Mike Kalkofen is an entrepreneurial, socially conscious professional specializing in accounting and operations management. The conversation at this lunch will focus on how to harness great accounting to improve operations for your entrepreneurial business. Although much of Mike's career has been in finance and accounting management, he also has extensive experience in operations management, and even owned his own business for a time. Sure, he can create killer Excel spreadsheets with the best of them, but he gets the most enjoyment out of using numbers to improve operations, to provide better customer service, and to help people.</p>

<p>Small Business Quickbooks Accounting Workshop: Have a fulfilling business but lost when it comes to accounting? Come learn Quickbooks basics hands on at this 2-day split workshop with Renee Trump of Pasaban Accounting! If you have a laptop, feel free to bring it along and follow the workshop with your own real numbers - this way, you will have made great progress with your business by the end of the workshop. In the event that you don't have a laptop, come join us nonetheless and learn how to get a strong handle on your finances! Register now to ensure you have a spot! Seats are limited to ensure that all participants receive direct attention.</p>
<p>IMPORTANT DATE & TIME INFO: The workshop is split between Monday, October 13th and Thursday, October 16th from 6:00pm-8:00pm each day. The Eventbrite interface is not conducive to that format for dates and times, so the event above does say Oct. 13 at 6:00pm - Oct. 16 at 8:00pm. This is not a 3-day event, but rather is a 4 hour workshop divided between two evenings. The registration admits to both days as they are consecutive and not alternative dates.</p>
<p>Forge Portland is hosting the workshop and is located in the Tiffany Center at 1410 SW Morrison St., Suite 850. For $99, Renee Trump and Forge Portland are offering you the opportunity to get your small business accounting on the right track with Quickbooks.</p>

<p>When most people imagine a tech startup’s office they probably conjure up glossy stereotypes: an open workspace, maybe in a converted warehouse, with modern design and amenities from beer on tap to a ping pong table.</p>
<p>In reality, we know you’re running lean and working out of your garage or perhaps even a local tech incubator. But how do you make the giant leap into leasing your own new space?</p>
<p>Local real estate experts Ajay Malhotra of CBRE, Kristin Hammond of Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL) and Peter Andrews of Melvin Mark have joined forces to help you navigate the murky waters of commercial real estate! Join us for Real Estate for Startups 101 on Thursday, November 20 from 4--6pm.</p>
<p>You will:</p>
<p>Learn about the current market, building types and locations</p>
<p>Set realistic timelines for finding a new space</p>
<p>Understand the true cost of a lease</p>
<p>And more!</p>
<p>We’ll allow plenty of time for discussion with the experts so you can find answers to all your questions about commercial real estate.</p>
<p>The event is free and refreshments are provided, but please RSVP.</p>

<p>Git is everywhere. Creative or engineering, you have directly encountered or will encounter Git in the workplace. Regardless of work style or team size, it is the tool that everyone should be using.</p>
<p>Unix is the basis for everything from personal computers and cellphones to super computers and web servers. Understanding the principles of how Unix works is essential to being an effective developer.</p>
<p>In this one-day workshop, you will be introduced to Git and Unix and get up to speed on concepts and workflows in no time. You will discover how working in the command line isn't all that scary, understand how to move between projects with just a few key strokes, and gain confidence with the steps involved for a common Git branching strategy. In addition, you will learn the brief history of Unix and some of the underlying philosophy of the Unix and Unix-like operating systems.</p>
<p>Cloning isn't just for sheep and galactic empires. Together we will all create and share GitHub repositories using the Unix command line.</p>
<p>Space is limited. Sign up now to reserve your seat.</p>
<p>General Public: $250
Incoming Foundations II, Bootcamp, and Development Accelerator Students: $50</p>

<p>Intel Corp and CENTRL Office would like to invite you to a Design Thinking workshop from 12-3pm on Friday, February 6, at CENTRL Office in the Pearl. Weąll immediately follow it up with a mini-Happy hour sponsored by Intel, where you can learn more about what we do and how you can get engaged. Space will be limited, and this private invitation will guarantee you a spot.</p>
<p>For those who don't know, Design Thinking is a methodology for systematic innovation, much like Lean Startup. Our group at Intel is using this methodology to create new, engaging product concepts. This is your chance to experience it with us.</p>
<p>Hope to see you there!</p>

<p>Ready to hack the future of hardware?</p>
<p>The Hackster Hardware Weekend is a celebration of makers, open source hardware and the Hackster community across America. From Seattle to NYC and everything in between, we are hitting the road driving an original DeLorean DMC 12 to run the coolest Hackathon & Meetup series of the year, with loads of free hardware kits, amazing speakers, software freebies and great people.</p>
<p>Best yet, you also get to hack our Time Machine. Update our DeLorean with the latest sensors, electronics, radios and data service. Make Doc Emmet Brown proud and #HackToTheFuture!</p>
<p>What will you build with the DeLorean? Share your ideas on the DeLorean hacks page.</p>

<p>An introduction and exploration of live, reactive templating with RactiveJS.</p>
<p>Whether you're a beginner or a veteran of web development, leverage your HTML, JS, and CSS knowledge to easily create dynamic data-driven applications and websites.</p>
<p>RSVP Here: ractivejs-workshop-april.eventbrite.com</p>
<h3>What is Ractive JS?</h3>
<p>Ractive is a template-driven UI library, but unlike other tools that generate inert HTML, it transforms your templates into blueprints for apps that are interactive by default.</p>
<p>Some tools force you to learn a new vocabulary and structure your app in a particular way. Ractive works for you, not the other way around – and it plays well with other libraries.</p>
<h3>What will the workshop cover?</h3>
<h4>Templating</h4>
<p>We'll cover the mustache basics and then dive into the expanded abilities of two-way binding, sections and expressions. Patterns for common use cases like master/detail relationships.</p>
<h4>Data, Binding and Observers</h4>
<p>Controlling data through template binding and programmatic manipulation. Establishing data flows with observers.</p>
<p>Decorators, Events and Transitions & Animations</p>
<p>Encapsulate DOM manipulation, respond to events and provide intro and outro effects</p>
<h4>Components</h4>
<p>Apply the fundamentals of Ractive in a modular fashion to build composable, powerful apps</p>
<p>Advanced Configuration and Instantiation, and more</p>
<h3>Resources to get started</h3>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.ractivejs.org/">http://www.ractivejs.org/</a></li>
<li><a href="https://github.com/martypdx/ractive-workshop">https://github.com/martypdx/ractive-workshop</a></li>
</ul>
<h3>Installation</h3>
<p>Using Ractive can be as simple as adding a script tag in the browser.</p>
<p><strong>However</strong>, for this workshop please make sure you have node.js installed as will be exploring ractive in a modern build environment. Here's how to get started: <a href="http://docs.ractivejs.org/latest/get-started-with-node-js">http://docs.ractivejs.org/latest/get-started-with-node-js</a></p>

<p>I know, I know. Accessibility seems like a thing that we should do... but it's sometimes uncomfortable to talk about and it feels like there aren't that many people who need it anyway... right?</p>
<p>Wrong. About 1 in 5 Americans reports that they have some kind of disability - from hearing impairment, vision impairment, mobility issues to mental disabilities and more. What does this mean for you and your company? It means that if you're not creating sites, services, and products with this group of people in mind, you're letting go of a multi-billion dollar market share. It also means that you're missing opportunities to be innovative leaders in your space. It also - finally - means that you're about to be breaking the law. Did you know that companies like Target and Netflix have been successfully (and expensively) sued for failure to create and maintain accessible sites? Well, they have. And we don't want that for you.</p>
<p>We're putting on a seriously hands-on workshop to help people from all ends of all companies think about this topic. Building the Accessibility Roadmap is a hands-on workshop. It is not a panel, or a lecture, or a networking schmooze event. You will leave with a real plan that you can implement. If you, your department, or company is ready to start thinking about the "accessibility question" - whether because it's the right thing to do or because it's the law - this workshop is designed to take you through our proprietary tool and roadmap system that points the way forward. You'll leave with actionable tasks, not just ideas or theory.</p>
<p>When: Tues. Aug 4th at 6-8:30pm
Where: 52 LTD
Who: Anyone interested in learning more about actionable accessibility</p>
<p>If you're ready to start planning AND doing, this workshop is for you. We'll cover a bit about the law, but the workshop is really geared toward helping you develop a real plan and approach for creating your company's accessibility roadmap.</p>

<p>DorkbotPDX is happy to offer a free workshop as an introduction to Pure Data (Pd).</p>
<p>When: Sunday, November 15th, 2015. 1-5pm
Where: Ctrl-H Hackerspace, 7608 N. Interstate, PDX, OR</p>
<p>Bring: A laptop and headphones</p>
<p>Instructors: Jesse Mejia, Alex Norman, Jason Plumb</p>
<p>Details:</p>
<p>In this 4-hour course, students will learn the basics of Pd and will have fun developing foundational Pd patching skills.</p>
<p>Pure Data (Pd) is a free, open-source, community supported data flow language and coding environment with an emphasis on sound, music, and multimedia. It was originally written by Miller Puckette (also the original author of Max/Max MSP) and runs on Linux, Mac OSX, Android, and Windows.</p>
<p>Pd has been used widely in the creation of art -- such as music, sound art, visual art, generative, new-media, and interactive art. Pd interfaces readily with MIDI equipment and many popular microcontrollers.</p>
<p>We have curriculum posted here: <a href="http://dorkbotpdx.org/wiki/intro_to_pd_workshop_2015">http://dorkbotpdx.org/wiki/intro_to_pd_workshop_2015</a></p>
<p>Beginners are welcome. No prior computer programming or sound programming experience is required!</p>
<p>Notes:
Students should attempt to install Pd prior to the workshop...but if not, no biggie. We can help with that!</p>
<p>Seating is limited to 20 participants. Please RSVP to <a href="mailto:jason@noisybox.net">jason@noisybox.net</a> to reserve a spot.</p>
<p>Attendees will respect The DorkbotPDX code of conduct and will be asked to donate.</p>

<p>Come practice Pair Programming and Test-Driven Development with us. Pair Programming is an Agile methodology in which two developers share a single workstation and work together to solve some problem. Test-Driven Development is a development process that relies on the repetition of a short development cycle driven by writing tests before any implementation code. Red, Green, Refactor.</p>

<p>The two-day Management 3.0 workshop splits between theoretical and practical agile management. It was created for software development but has been adapted by all sorts of agile teams around the world. Day One focuses on how to energize people and empower teams. Day Two dives into aligning constraints and developing competencies.
<a href="http://inspiredagility.com/learning/">http://inspiredagility.com/learning/</a></p>
<p>Management 3.0 started out as a book of the same name written by leadership guru Jurgen Appelo back in 2010. Since then, Management 3.0 has become a global management movement.</p>
<p>"Having personally met François in my course and discussed with him the various challenges and opportunities of managing Agile organizations, I fully trust him. He will prepare a course of thunder. I wish I could attend!" * - Jurgen Appelo, author of the book and course creator Management 3.0</p>
<p>Our facilitator François Beauregard founded Pyxis in 2000. He acts as a coach, trainer, facilitator and senior consultant for organizations who wish to increase productivity and adopt an Agile approach. As a certified integral coach and certified integral facilitator I am particularly passionate about how human being develop.</p>

<p><img src="http://i.imgur.com/VSEGvBY.png" alt="Image Logo - Advanced Redux: A 2-day workshop from Real World React"></p>
<p>Note: this is a paid event. You can purchase tickets at <a href="https://universe.com/advancedredux">https://universe.com/advancedredux</a></p>
<p>You've learned React, and are excited about building robust, scalable applications. But at some point your application is going to become too complex for React to handle on its own. How do you effectively manage each component and their states? Enter Redux.</p>
<p>Redux has fast become the architecture of choice for building scalable applications with JavaScript and React. It will help you to better organize your application and make state mutations more predictable and transparent.</p>
<p>In this advanced workshop, FreeCodeCamp CTO Berkeley Martinez will help you to take your development skills to the next level.</p>
<h2>What you will learn</h2>
<p>Saturday - Sunday:</p>
<ul>
<li>Using Redux Middleware</li>
<li>Managing Asynchronicity</li>
<li>Dispatching Thunks and Promises</li>
<li>Using Redux with RxJS Observables</li>
<li>Analytics with Redux</li>
<li>Server Side Rendering using RxJS Observables</li>
</ul>
<h2>What we will build</h2>
<p>We will apply the principles above as we build a social e-commerce app, complete with:</p>
<ul>
<li>Search and Filtering</li>
<li>User authentication</li>
<li>Likes</li>
<li>Follows</li>
<li>Shopping Cart</li>
</ul>
<h2>Your Instructor</h2>

He has been programming with React for over two years, and is the author of Redux-Epic, a library built to do better async and server-side rendering in React with RxJS Observables. He is also the co-organizer of the San Francisco-based Meetup group Real World React, which features talks and workshops on using React in real-world, production applications. As an instructor at Real World React, he consults individuals and businesses looking to become experts in React, Redux, and other tools in the ecosystem.</p>

<div class="description">
<p>At DevelopmentNow, we like learning how to use and program new technology, and the ability to write skills for Amazon's Alexa assistant is pretty exciting. We're hosting a free workshop and hackathon at our offices, during which we'll learn together to write a new Alexa skill, and demonstrate it, in an hour!</p>
<p>Because this will be late October, and because we also like the spooky atmosphere of that time of year, we're going to focus on thinking of skills with a Halloween bent. Given time and interest, we may even be able to put together a decision-tree narration of a haunted house. We're also eager to hear your own ideas and see what all the participants come up with together.</p>
<p><strong>What's the planned schedule?</strong></p>
<p>Our office doors will open at 10 am, and we'll officially kick off the session at 11. We'll share quickstart documents to everyone in attendance, and have a couple of our in-house developers with Alexa experience roaming the place to help figure things out. At 4 pm, we'll wrap up and take turns showing off what we've built.</p>
<p><strong>What are my transport/parking options?</strong></p>
<p>Parking around the east side of the Burnside Bridge is limited, but generally viable on weekends. We're also very close to the MLK and Burnside stop for the A Loop of the Portland Streetcar, or a block from the nearest bus stop on the 19 or 20. We have indoor bike parking as well.</p>
<p><strong>What should I bring to the event?</strong></p>
<p>Please bring a laptop and a willingness to learn! You don't need previous experience. We'll provide power, wifi, workspace, food, cooperative instruction, and our Echo for testing.</p>
<p><strong>Where can I contact the organizer with any questions?</strong></p>
<p><a href="mailto:hello@developmentnow.com">hello@developmentnow.com</a></p>
<p><strong>You said there will be food?</strong></p>
<p>Yes! We'll provide coffee and pastries when the office doors open at 10, and order Sizzle Pie around 2 pm for our hard-working participants.</p>

<p>Millennials have a reputation for bashing brands in social media, expecting companies to do the impossible in order to win their business, and lacking the sense of brand loyalty that generations before them held. Are these perceptions true? We’ll bust some myths and look at the realities of this coveted demographic’s consumer behavior.</p>
<p>In this session, you’ll discover what makes millenials unique when it comes to choosing the brands and products they buy and talk about. You’ll see real-life examples and learn to craft a brand story that compels them to say, “Yes!”</p>
<p>By the end of this workshop you’ll:</p>
<ul>
<li>Develop a better understanding (and appreciation) for millennial consumers</li>
<li>Know how to deeply define your most ideal customers</li>
<li>Have a better idea of what tactics you might implement right away to stand out and earn some millennial love</li>

<p>What is a sales pipeline? Why do I need a sales pipeline? How do I use my sales pipeline?</p>
<p>One of the things I hate about some of the workshops or seminars I have attended over the years is that I walk out with great intentions to use everything I learned but then I do not implement the thing or things I had learned. Why? My theory is that while in the workshops I just sat and listened, take notes and participate but I did not ‘leave’ with something that fit me. Once I got home I had to make the program work for me and personalize it for me.</p>
<p>With this in mind I have designed my workshops to be hands-on, small and intimate. We work together as a team to design what you need not what the masses need. So my challenge to you is to walk out of my workshop with the framework for your ready-to-use personal sales pipeline.</p>
<p>Sales pipelines are not just a visual representation of your sales prospects…it is the bible of your business. Your pipeline should be personal and represent you and your business. At any time, you should be able to it pull up your pipeline and speak clearly and intelligently to where you are at in your business.</p>
<p>My one-hour brown bag lunch workshop is designed to help you understand the importance to having a pipeline, how to manage your pipeline and design a quickie pipeline that is fits your personality and your personal needs.</p>
<p>Please remember to bring your laptop and a lunch!</p>
<p>Cost: FREE</p>
<p>Please sign up at Eventbrite website seating is very limited...for more info on me visit, annieweller.com</p>

<p>Before investing your life savings, asking friends and family for investment or leaving an existing job, there are things every entrepreneur should know about the road ahead. At The Bridge we work with new entrepreneurs every day. This 4-hour workshop reflects what we have learned about the risks and rewards of entrepreneurship and offers practical guidance on how to start a high impact business.</p>
<p>At The Bridge we focus on scalable and high impact businesses as opposed to “Main Street” small businesses. There is often, but not always, a strong element of technological innovation in these businesses. This might involve software development, engineering or even food science. Scalable businesses generally have more significant investment requirements and nationally, if not globally directed strategies.</p>
<p>In this entrepreneurial workshop participants will learn about:
Financing Options – We will outline known and conventional funding sources for Entrepreneurs as well as discuss bootstrapping a startup without any outside funding</p>
<p>The Stages of a startup and what to expect at each stage
IDEA > CONCEPT > COMMIT > VALIDATION > SCALE > ESTABLISHING</p>
<p>Business Model Canvas – This useful framework is a foundational tool for early stage founders to effectively map out all the areas required to make a business successful</p>
<p>This workshop is put on in cooperation with WorkSource and The Bridge. There is a fee of $495 per attendee, but based on eligibility Worksource is offering full scholarships to qualified individuals.</p>
<p>Please contact Doreen Englemann at WorkSource WA for details at <a href="mailto:dengelmann@esd.wa.gov">dengelmann@esd.wa.gov</a> or 360-735-4960.</p>

<p>In the final week of prep, class will meet nightly with our instructional staff to:
+Review key concepts, material, and vocabulary from the online work
+Share tips, tricks, and shortcuts (your computer is a key developer tool - we’ll show you how to navigate it’s potential like a pro)
+Make sure you’re ready to get the most out of Bootcamp, with a solid understanding of GIT & Command Line; the DOM (HTML, CSS, JavaScript); JavaScript variables & control flow; JavaScript functions & objects</p>

<p><b>Women Who Code Portland</b> is thrilled to feature <i>“Creating a Culture of Inclusion and Equity”</i>, by Kristina Houck, LCSW and Tanya Crenshaw, PhD.</p>
<br>
<p>Tech culture needs to change. All too often, underrepresented groups are marginalized and excluded as a result of implicit bias expressed through microaggressions. Creating a culture in which everyone experiences a sense of acceptance and belonging requires a collective commitment.</p>
<br>
<p><b>What to Expect</b><br>
- Presentation and interactive workshop<br>
- Learn about the relationship between implicit bias and the microaggressions that can surface</p>
<p>
<b>Key Takeaways</b>
<br>
- Actionable ways to disrupt bias
<br>
- Identify and practice strategies to engage in culture change
<br>
- Changing the culture requires a lot of people making individual choices that actively tear down and confront everyday biases and microaggressions

<p>Are you satisfied with your business results so far this year?</p>
<p>Do you feel focused and empowered in your business?</p>
<p>Do you wish you had specific goals and strategies to hit your revenue targets?</p>
<p>2018 is almost halfway over but there's still time to make 2018 your best year in business yet!</p>
<p>You’ve heard the saying: “Most businesses don’t plan to fail; they just fail to plan.” Well, it’s true. A winning sports team would never take the field or enter the arena without a game plan in place. Likewise, a business that operates without a plan operates is at a significant competitive disadvantage.</p>
<p>Businesses move so quickly these days that it's no longer feasible to create long-term strategic plans. What is most effective is creating a bold vision, 3-5 year goals, and a specific 90-day plan. These 90-day "sprints" are strategically designed to keep you on- track and focused to meet your goals.</p>
<p>Learn how to get the results you desire in your business by creating a Powerful 90-day Plan for your Third Quarter at the Ignite your Business Workshop.</p>
<p>During this workshop, we'll cover:
The importance of having written goals for achieving your dreams
How to overcome resistance and blocks to planning (we all have them!)
How to create a functional plan that isn't overwhelming and will actually keep you on track!
How to reverse engineer a plan to reach your revenue goals in 2018
How to create more joy and ease in your business while achieving your goals
Creating a bold vision to take you even farther than you can imagine!</p>
<p>Attendees will receive lunch, our 90-Day Powerful Planning Guide, and Professional Technique to help you succeed with your business planning.</p>
<p>Date and Time: Friday, June 22, 2018 from 11:45 - 2:00 pm</p>
<p>Location:
Old Spaghetti Factory (Clackamas)
12725 Southeast 93rd Avenue
Clackamas, OR 97015</p>
<p>Tickets: $59 which includes lunch and a 90-day Powerful Planning Guide
Seats are limited so register early!</p>

<p>NodeBots Day is world wide event where people learn how to control the physical world with JavaScript. The focus of NodeBots Day is on sharing and enjoying each other's company and JavaScript - lots of JavaScript.</p>
<p>This year PDXNode and Women Who Code Portland are joining forces to host an awesome NodeBots Day in Portland. We want you to leave with the satisfaction of making something awesome!</p>
<p>Continuing in the spirit of the international NodeBots Day event: this is not a hackathon. It's about spending a day in an amazing workshop with good people and tinkering, hacking and generally putting tools where hardware would rather you didn't. Women Who Code Portland will be providing some hardware at the event, but feel free to bring your own!</p>
<p>We are very beginner and help is available. There will be seasoned Nodesters ready and available to help anyone with questions or advice throughout the event. NodeBots also has a online chat community where you can connect to other hackers around the world who are also exploring.</p>

<p>The end of August means that Fall is around the corner. Are you switching careers this season? Are you looking to get into the tech industry for the first time? This month, pdxFLIT is taking a break from presentations to host a special workshop about professional development! We'll be partnering with our friends from Intel to provide a two-hour event featuring a variety of activities. There will be opportunities to turn strengths into interview stories, participate in resume reviews, practice elevator pitches, and practice answering tricky behavioral interview questions. If you're searching for a job, take a night off to work on these valuable skills!</p>
<p>Workshop events will begin at 6 PM. Our event facilitators will cover introductions and elevator pitches, resumés, authentic interviewing, the STAR method, and more! There will be a variety of activities to help you practice these skills so that you can put your best foot forward when you land an interview at your dream company. If you have any questions about various aspects of this event, please contact Masen or Katie via Meetup, Twitter, email, or Slack.</p>
<p>This event will be fully catered thanks to our awesome sponsors at Thinkful. Pizza will be served and there will be vegan and gluten-free options available.

<p>Sound is one of the most commonly overlooked components in product design, even though it’s often the first way people interact with many products. When designers don’t pay enough attention to sound elements, customers are frequently left with annoying and interruptive results. This practical workshop covers several methods that product designers and managers can use to improve everyday interactions through an understanding and application of sound design.</p>
<p>Understand the place of sound in design, and how it can make a difference in your product</p>
<p>Learn key concepts in sound design, with patterns and principles you can use to improve user experience</p>
<p>Learn how to integrate sound design into a project</p>
<p>Use exercises to help evaluate sound design</p>
<p>We have a limited number of scholarships for our workshops. If you need an application, please send an email to <a href="mailto:mtc@pnca.edu">mtc@pnca.edu</a> with your complete name and contact information.</p>

<p>Instructor: Amber Case</p>
<p>Calm Technology is a framework for designing ubiquitous devices that engage our attention in an appropriate manner. The aim of Calm Technology is to provide principles that follow the human lifestyle and environment in mind, allowing technology to amplify humanness instead of taking it away.</p>
<p>The difference between an annoying technology and one that is helpful is how it engages our attention. This workshop will cover how to use principles of Calm Technology to design the next generation of connected devices. We’ll look at notification styles, compressing information into other senses, and designing for the least amount of cognitive overhead.</p>
<p>Structure and activities</p>
<p>Students will work in groups to solve a series of design challenges, including designing new products, ‘calming down’ a complex ones, communicating the principles of Calm Technology across an organization and team, and entering a product successfully into the marketplace.</p>
<p>You’ll learn how to:</p>
<p>Use principles of Calm Technology to design the next generation of connected devices.</p>
<p>Design appropriate notification systems into both physical and software products</p>
<p>Communicate the principles of Calm Technology to your across your organization and team</p>
<p>Use methods of Calm Technology to design technology for generations, not seasons.</p>
<p>Enter your product successfully into the marketplace.</p>
<p>Who is the workshop for?</p>
<p>This workshop is for anyone that actively builds or makes decisions about technology, especially user experience designers, product designers, managers, creative directors and developers. Attendees are encouraged to have some background in user experience design and look at <a href="http://calmtech.com/">http://calmtech.com/</a> or Designing Calm Technology before the workshop.</p>
<p>Bringing a laptop is not required, as work will be done on paper and in groups.</p>
<p>We have a limited number of scholarships for our workshops. If you need an application, please send an email to <a href="mailto:mtc@pnca.edu">mtc@pnca.edu</a> with your complete name and contact information.</p>

<p>In this workshop we will practice design challenges similar to those one might encounter either on the job or during the interview process for a UX, Product or Service Design position. We will approach the challenge with a mindset on innovation before honing on on what aligns with our user experience and business goals.</p>
<p>Using a combination of pre-work, rapid-research and team activities, we will aim to steer away from "safe innovation" and run-of-the-mill solutions to dive deeper into what is possible and what might most delight our users, customer and clients.</p>
<p>During the session we will practice...</p>
<p>Ideation
Innovative thinking
Rapid Prototyping
Design-thinking
White-boarding
...and more!
This workshop is designed for UX and HCD professionals of all skill levels but participants will ideally have a basic understanding of human-centered design, UX design, product design or a similar mindset to get the most out of the night.</p>

<p>Looking to meet new professional contacts but want to skip the small talk? Interested in getting help in facing work challenges head on? Ready to learn the best way to have positive and supportive professional relationships to become a better leader?</p>
<p>Welcome to the power of peer coaching.</p>
<p>Peer coaching is awesome! It's a mutually supportive, powerful form of learning and development where peers work together to reflect, share ideas, teach one another, or solve problems in the workplace through deep inquiry, accountability, direct feedback, and encouragement.</p>
<p>Peer coaching also helps build emotional intelligence, which is indispensable when stepping into leadership positions. The best leaders take the time to learn and practice skills like active listening, empathy, open communication and effective feedback, which can all be learned through practicing successful peer coaching relationships.</p>
<p>Join StartOut for a 1-hour peer coaching event where attendees will:</p>
<p>Learn basic peer coaching strategies like active listening, asking open questions and giving/getting effective feedback
Get matched with 3 new people and meet 1:1 together for 15 minute breakout sessions
Get to know each other by sharing your story with conversation prompts, practice your new peer coaching strategies, and create meaningful connections
Have the opportunity to stay in touch and continue supporting your new contacts throughout the year</p>
<p>About the host:</p>
<p>Hi! I'm Tracy (they/she), a StartOut programming board member. I design strategic programs for client companies who focus on community. In the past I've built experiences for Airbnb, Girl Scouts, Ketel One, the Alliance for Downtown New York, the Brooklyn Museum and more.</p>
<p>I'm also an independent creator, building events and programs like Lady Boss (curated talks and speed mentoring for womxn and non-binary people), Radical Sabbatical (a creative retreat to take a break and make some progress) and Queer Future (a community for LGBTQIA+ folx to talk about work).</p>
<p>I've also participated in many group coaching, peer-led or cohort-based learning experiences over the years, so I know a lot about collaboration, active listening, asking honest questions, and giving/receiving feedback.</p>
<p>StartOut, a national 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, is the largest national organization to support LGBTQ entrepreneurs with 17,000 members nationwide. Its mission is to increase the number, diversity, and impact of LGBTQ entrepreneurs and amplify their stories to drive the economic empowerment of the community.

<ul>
<li>The Idea.</li>
<li>Product Mockup</li>
<li>MVP Development</li>
<li>Product Launch!</li>
</ul>
<p>The 3rd hour will be used for questions / stories.</p>
<p>This workshop is ideal for the following businesses:</p>
<ul>
<li>Small businesses needing an app for their service</li>
<li>Entrepreneurs with an app idea for a new business</li>
<li>Businesses/entrepreneurs needing a website</li>
