I really love teaching people how to use FileMaker Pro. It is so
exciting to see that light bulb go off in students' heads when they finally understand a FileMaker concept or learn
something they never thought FileMaker could accomplish.
If you are struggling with the cost, travel or time commitment for a quality FileMaker class, perhaps some former students of mine can convince you.
I get tons of testimonials
every time I teach a class, and I am always amazed at how my classes change the lives of the students. Click on the

Quote about Scriptology Book "As a newbie Filemaker Pro developer, I can't thank you enough for the great job you guys did with Scriptology. I recently got hired for my first Filemaker job and it was much more complex than I realized. I had purchased a Filemaker Bible, but that was nothing more than a user's manual. There were no real concrete scripting examples. The book and examples provided on the Scriptology CD-ROM helped me through and I couldn't have completed the job without them. Literally. For anyone who needs real-world, complex scripting help, I can't recommend this book enough. Thanks you guys!"

If you can't afford
the time away from work or you require a very specific solution, I offer GoToMeeting training and consulting.
This allows you to customize the training to a specific area or have me assist you with a specific issue. I'll even send you FileMaker files demonstrating
any techniques we cover during the session.
If you aren't familiar with GoToMeeting, it is a service that allows two or more people to share and control their screens. GoToMeeting is the best
collaboration tools I have ever used!
If you are interested in talking to me, call 909-393-4664 PST or email me at jmo@filemakerpros.com.

This site runs entirely on FileMaker and PHP because I wanted to demonstrate that FileMaker really can do it all!
