<strong>This is a course that empowers you by unlocking the complexities of how Spring Boot works so that you understand what's going on. In this way, you get an excellent foundational basis of Spring Boot that allows you to stand in good stead, so you'll feel at ease exploring further and tapping into the amazing power that this versatile and powerful platform offers.</strong>
        <p>Spring Boot provides some impressive features to simplify writing your code, and does so with minimal effort. It is the fastest way to get a Spring application up and running with the fewest lines of code and the least configuration. It aims to make development easy so that you can create production-grade applications and services.

This course begins by helping you configure Spring Boot, then shows you a practical implementation of its various features. Then, you will work on running and debugging Spring Boot apps in the IDE. Following that, you'll learn the foundations of the Spring Boot platform and understand its operations. Afterwards, you'll understand layered architecture basics and how Spring Boot lets us create layered applications built on top of Spring. You'll also see how autoconfiguration works and understand how to use it and troubleshoot it where required. Finally, you'll be injecting properties into Spring-managed beans and publishing Spring events to ApplicationListeners.

By the end of the course, you will get hands-on knowledge of running and debugging Spring Boot applications in the IDE. You will also be able to publish these applications on a website.</p>

In Domain 8, we will understand and integrate security in the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), then identify and apply security controls in software development ecosystems. Post that, we will assess the effectiveness of software security and cover the security impact of acquired software. Then we will define and apply secure coding guidelines and standards. We will also cover OWASP top 10 as per 2021 and other software vulnerabilities, different software development maturity models, third-party software security, and AI (Artificial Intelligence). The course also includes 30 practice questions to test our learning from the course. By the end of this course, you will be prepared for Domain 8 of the CISSP exam.

<strong>Code along with the course to create responsive, mobile-first websites that look stunning using CSS. Test the skills you've learned in the course by attempting the projects at the end of every section.</strong>
        <p>In the first section of the course, we'll learn about CSS syntax, how to style certain HTML elements using CSS selectors, changing the text on our page, using different colors, changing default link styling, adding background images, working with borders, changing heights and widths of elements, changing spacing with margins and paddings, and making parts of your page see-through.

In the second section, we'll apply everything we learned in CSS 101 and get our hands dirty with more advanced CSS. This includes understanding the display property, the box model, outlines versus borders, specific element positioning, advanced CSS selectors, pseudo selectors and pseudo-elements, transitions, animations, flexbox, and CSS grid.

In the final section, we'll learn about responsive web design. This is how we make websites look great on all devices, including phones, tablets, laptops, desktops, TVs, and more.

We'll also dive right into media queries and what mobile-first means and why it's important. Then we'll make images and video embeds responsive. And we'll finish the course with a final project where you make a flexbox (or CSS grid) page layout and then transform it into a responsive website so that it looks amazing on smaller devices, such as a phone.

<strong>Build your audience with professionally designed, UX-friendly apps</strong>
        <p>Welcome to The Complete Guide to Designing a Mobile App!

Many fantastic apps never attract a big audience, and one key reason for that is that they're poorly designed. There's a big difference between building an app and designing it; it's the difference between an app that works perfectly, looks fantastic, and does exactly what it promises, and one that doesn't. The more design work you put into your app, the more successful your app will be.

In this course, you'll get a brief overview of design principles, before getting into the how-to and learning by doing, with regular exercises and challenges to test and cement your learning. The first half of the course focuses on:

&bull; Design basics-Learn simple (but devastatingly effective) design principles. Understand 
  the  differences between iOS and Android design systems, and what that means for your 
  app.
&bull;  Polishing your idea-Tailor your app to your users and stand out from the competition! 
   Learn how to sketch out and wireframe an app idea and see the difference this makes!
&bull;  Information architecture-The backbone of any good app. The structure of your design 
   is so important-learn the guiding principles behind the app and information architecture 
   here!
&bull;  Style-color, font, icons, typography. Everything you need to know!
&bull;  Components and patterns-Help users navigate your app. Create forms, fields, 
    notifications, animations, and more!
&bull;   The user experience-Make your app simple and intuitive and your users will love you. 
     Learn how here.   
&bull;   Design with Sketch-A complete guide to the hugely well-regarded design software, 
     Sketch.

<strong>In the fast-paced world of data science and machine learning, you have to stay up-to-date and keep ahead of the competition. For this, you have to constantly be on the lookout for the latest trends in tools and techniques for data science and machine learning. You don't want to miss out on the latest trend and the tool of the future! Right now, that tool is the Julia programming language. It's the hot new language that all ML and data science experts are very excited about. Learning Julia will open up several doors for you in your career!</strong>
        <p>The objective of this course is to give you a strong foundation needed to excel in Julia and learn the core of the language as well as the applied side in the shortest amount of time possible.

We won't waste time with the theory of why Julia is fast. We will jump right into the details and start coding. You will quickly realize how easy it is to learn this state-of-the-art and promising language. You will see how you can start using Julia to excel in your current job without moving the whole stack to Julia immediately.

After explaining the basic concepts, we jump to case studies in data science and then machine learning. We apply both traditional machine learning models and then get to deep learning. You will see how Julia can help you create deep learning models from scratch in just a few lines of code and then move on to the state-of-the-art models without spending too much time.

This way, you get to learn the most important concepts in this subject in the shortest amount of time possible without having to deal with the details of the less relevant topics. Once you have developed an intuition of the important stuff, you can then learn the latest and greatest models even on your own!

By the end of the course, you will have a strong understanding of Julia programming language fundamentals.

LOOKING FOR: YA/NA FANTASY, SFF, HORROR, ADULT FICTION

John Baker (he/him) joined the Bell Lomax Moreton agency in 2019, cultivating a list shaped around his passion for science fiction, fantasy, and horror, though has lately also branched out into action/adventure fiction. John focuses on authors writing in the Adult, New Adult, and YA spaces. 

John leads the wider agency's film & TV desk, is the Secretary of the Association of Author’s Agents, and the co-chair of the AAA’s Bridge Committee. He also serves on the Kingston University MA Publishing Advisory Board.

Under the umbrella of speculative fiction, John is looking for fantasy, science fiction, horror, romantasy, or literary speculative fiction. He has built a reputation as a champion of underrepresented voices and stories, be it from creators hailing from the global majority and their diasporas or neurodiverse authors, and naturally gravitates towards this kind of storytelling. In short, if he’s never read a story like yours before, he wants to see it. 

Adult fantasy: John loves beefy epic fantasy, especially non-Anglo Christian-inspired. Give him an immersive world, a fresh magical or mythic system, and an exciting cast of characters and he’ll be happy. He is a broad church in the genre so loves a political fantasy, swords and sorcery, courtly intrigue, monster hunting and dastardly villains. John is keen to find an urban fantasy that feels fresh and fun and he’s a sucker for a heroic quest narrative. He’s also very open to fantasy that isn’t easily categorised, but it is playing in that world. John is keenly hunting for more historical fantasy, especially inspired by modern history. He’s had fun with mythological retellings in the past, but as ever, let’s make sure it’s shining the spotlight on new stories. He would also love fantasy that centres on types of relationships less celebrated in fantasy, such as established and secure married couples, or siblings. 

NA/YA fantasy: In this genre, most importantly, John wants to have a good time, whether it’s swoon-worthy kisses in lush ball gowns, or gruesome gore and monsters, so send him pacy, plot-filled adventures. He’d love more books that teenage boys would love: Skullduggery Pleasant forever! 

Romantasy: The thriving new romantasy genre comes with its own set of challenges, so John wants to know what makes your romantasy different; what will set it out from the (very crowded!) market. Give it completely barmy stakes, cool and unique new settings, or a love story that will make your jaw drop. To be clear, he’s happily sorted for a human person meets a fae creature in the spooky woods. Also, cosmic romance is the genre of the future. Give him romantasy in space. Easy. 

Horror: John and horror are old friends. He loves horror inspired by myth and folklore, subversive weird horror that leaves your eyebrows in your hairline, historical horror that pulls from ghastly true stories, and anything that you’ll be reading with the light on. He also loves a gothic element and is particularly looking for horror with a strong romantic throughline, fun YA horror, and female & NB horror authors. 

Science fiction: SF is coming back! And John has been shouting about that. He loves to see an adventurous found-family romp through space or an epic, crunchy space opera. Speculative near-future is fun too, in the vein of Black Mirror’s more uplifting episodes, (e.g. San Junipero). He loves YA science fiction as well; the more creative the better. 

Literary: John is open to finding more rich magical realism or something character-led yet supernatural and would love a high-concept mystery, in the vein of Stuart Turton. He also loves spec fic that uses the speculative lightly as a way of confronting a deeper truth in society today. 

Weird stuff: John wants books that will blow people’s minds and defy categorisation. This is hard to describe, but think Gideon The Ninth, The Library At Mount Char, This Is How You Lose The Time War. John loves a pitch that leaves the editors baffled but intrigued. 

Action/Adventure, Historical Adventure, Espionage: John is branching out into non-speculative adventures, such as John Le Carré, Lee Child, Ian Flemming, and Mick Herron. More as his taste develops, but the hunt is on!

Not looking for: military sci-fi or hard SF, or anything with biblical “character wakes up in purgatory/heaven/hell” narratives. The right comedic fantasy has yet to hit his inbox, but please don’t comp Douglas Adams or Sir Terry.

John would like you to submit a covering letter, 1-2 page synopsis and the first three chapters (or 5,000 words whichever is longest) of your manuscript in a single word document.

(In addition to the paid sessions, John is kindly offering one free session for low income/under-represented writers. Please email agent121@iaminprint.co.uk to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the discretion of I Am In Print).

Details 
Using pre-recorded training, interactive on-line content (through Padlet), self-directed learning and live events, this substantial and comprehensive blended training course keeps delegates interested, engaged and learning new ways to bring excellence to their 24-hour postural care provision and focuses on the often neglected lying position and how unsupported lying drives changes to a person's body shape which impacts sitting, standing and functional movement. 

You will have access to the online learning from 23rd April 2025 and be provided with all the information you will need to complete the course. At 1pm (BST) on 23rd April you will then join the trainers for an introductory event via Zoom to provide an outline of the training and to answer any questions you may have. Over the next few weeks you can access the pre-recorded training videos and interactive online content to enable you to complete the workbook. On 4th June 2025 there will be a series of live discussion events for the specific ages the course covers to assess your learning (you must attend at least one of these events - please see below for further information). 

Why? 
People with complex needs, deserve a thorough, co-ordinated 24-hour postural care service. We only get one body and yet people with complex disabilities don't always get the 'annual service' afforded the equipment they use.
Posture Positive report (2020) found training is a key aspect to developing resilient and robust 24-hour postural care for people with complex needs. Every person with complex needs or limited movement requires a comprehensive 24-hour postural care service delivered in a personalised way. 

Who? 
The course is suitable for specialist physiotherapists, specialist occupational therapists and other highly trained healthcare professionals working in health, SEN and social care. 
The course breaks down the life span of a person as follows:
0-3 years
Children and young people in education
Adults
Older people and palliative care

Each delegate selects the aspects of the course relevant to their particular area of practice whilst having access to all the course resources.
What? 

On completion of the course, it is hoped delegates will be equipped with the knowledge needed to deliver an outstanding, person-centred, 24-hour postural care service. 

This course covers: 
Why is postural care such a big deal?
What is 24-hour postural care?
Identification of need
Predictable changes to body shape
Preventing, protecting and reversing body shape distortion
Postural care in the real world with real people
Special considerations for all stages of life
Monitoring and evaluating outcomes
Co-production in developing personalised postural care

You can focus on one specific age group or take a general approach allowing you to adapt the course to meet your own learning objectives. 

On 4th June the final live review events with the trainers via Zoom are available for the specific ages that the course covers. You must attend at least one of these live discussion (the one most relevant to your practice) but you are welcome to join all four. 
Please note the timings are BST.

10.30am - 11.30am 0-3 years
11.45am – 12.45pm Children in education
1.45pm - 2.45pm Adults
3.00pm - 4.00pm Older people and palliative care

Training for individuals and family carers
On successful completion of the course, all delegates will gain access to bespoke training materials designed by parents for parents of people with complex needs. This includes ongoing trainer support for local therapists hosting the workshops, pre-recorded training videos, workbook and designated webpage.

LOOKING FOR: ADULT FICTION, NON-FICTION

Florence has been at A M Heath for five years and represents a range of commercial fiction and non-fiction. 

For fiction, comforting, funny and warm reads, as well as gripping page-turners, will always be Florence's cup of tea. Her favourite thing is to escape with a story she can’t put down. If you think your book fits that, then do send it to her. 

Books in this vein that really left her wanting one more chapter include Marian Keyes’s character, Rachel, from Rachel’s Holiday that left Florence with a compassion for addiction that only the most skilled of writers can conjure. Florence finds Catherine Newman to be a genius for making hospice care so funny in We All Want Impossible Things. Smart page turners such as Anatomy of a Scandal, Such a Fun Age, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, wowed her with clever, gripping prose and complicated, flawed characters she hadn't met before. She also loves older classics like the Cazalet Chronicles and Georgette Heyer’s Regency novels.

Florence is actively looking for writers who are under-represented in the publishing world, through non-traditional channels, as well as her submissions. She’s keen to find non-fiction and fiction writers who speak to a millennial and younger audience, be that a journalist who is looking to expand an idea, a screenwriter who is looking to try their hand at fiction or perhaps an activist with a social media platform.  She is also interested in environmental and social issues.

The authors she represents include Jaspreet Kaur, Salma El-Wardany, Rachel Thompson, Annie Lord, Angelica Malin and Phil Ellis. Their books range from the heart-breaking and profound to the inspirational, funny and wise, with almost everything in between. 

Florence does not wish to receive, YA, Fantasy or Sci-fi. 

Florence would like you to submit a covering letter, 1 page synopsis and the first 5,000 words of your manuscript in a single word document. 

(In addition to the paid sessions, Florence is kindly offering one free session for low income/under-represented writers. Please email agent121@iaminprint.co.uk to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the discretion of I Am In Print). 

By booking you understand you need to conduct an internet connection test with I Am In Print prior to the event. You also agree to email your material in one document to reach I Am In Print by the stated submission deadline and note that I Am In Print take no responsibility for the advice received during your agent meeting.

The submission deadline is: Wednesday 14th May 2025

Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen (distance healing symbol)
What will I learn on this course:-

Have increased level 2 Reiki energy
How to practice Self-Healing using the increased energy

I am a Reiki Master and teacher and I am one of the few traditionally trained Reiki Masters in the UK who have been trained by international best-selling Reiki author Penelope Quest. My teaching methods use traditional Reiki techniques perfected over many years and you can be assured of my support during and after your course.
The course can be booked online here and you will receive instructions on how to access the course.

What this course offers you
Individual Support - During and after your course
Practical Experience - Step by step training is given so that you can gain valuable experience using Reiki
Energy Perception – You will be taught to develop skills of energy perception and learn how to interpret the Reiki by what you sense and feel
Personal Growth - You will discover for yourself the increased level of Reiki healing and be able to use its methods of healing on others and have paying clients if you wish
Why a Level 2 Course? Reiki at Level 2 is the level of training which is needed to practise Reiki healing professionally and have paying clients. Often reflexologists, aromatherapists and other complementary therapists add reiki healing to their range of healing skills that they offer their clients. 
However it is not just for those who have clients it is also a powerful self-development technique for your own personal healing experience and to share with family/friends and give them the benefit of well-being.
A certificate at Reiki Level One is needed for you to enrol on this course and I am happy to accept students who have trained elsewhere with another Reiki Master.
The Reiki Two course is taught live on line using Zoom.
Testimonials:- What other students who have attended my courses are saying

As chief talent-spotter, Clare loves to discover memorable new characters, bold and unique voices, strong concepts and gripping storytelling. She represents picture books, middle-grade, teenage and YA. Clare is particularly looking for funny chapter books for younger readers at the moment, as well as contemporary MG, YA fantasy, romance, and rom coms, especially with underrepresented protagonists. Whatever the age range, Clare loves a big hook, a lot of heart, and a standout voice. For picture books she has the widest taste, from daft to lyrical, rhyming to prose. If your submission doesn&rsquo;t fit a description here, it doesn&rsquo;t mean Clare doesn&rsquo;t want to receive it.

LOOKING FOR: PICTURE BOOKS, MG, YA, ADULT FICTION

Clare Wallace joined the Darley Anderson Agency in January 2011 and is building both the Darley Anderson Children’s Agency and the Darley Anderson Illustration Agency lists as well as taking on adult fiction for debut authors. 

Clare is particularly looking for funny chapter books for younger readers at the moment, as well as contemporary MG, YA fantasy, romance, and rom coms, especially with underrepresented protagonists. For picture books she has the widest taste, from daft to lyrical, rhyming to prose. 

As well as being busy with the children’s and illustration agencies, Clare is open to debut adult fiction submissions that could be described as book club, rom-com, romance, saga, reading group, fantasy or historical fiction. She often doesn’t know what she’s looking for until she finds it (although she is not the person for steampunk or space opera). 

She represents picture books, middle-grade, teenage and YA and debut adult fiction. The clients Clare represents include Perdita & Honor Cargill, Caroline Crowe, Tom Ellen, Martyn Ford, Stewart Foster, Olivia Hope, A M Howell, Polly Ho-Yen, Rachel Ip, Beth Reekles, J.P. Rose, Lindsay Galvin, Dave Rudden, Deirdre Sullivan and Efua Traoré.
Whatever the age range, Clare loves a big hook, a lot of heart, and a standout voice.  She loves to discover memorable new characters, bold and unique voices, strong concepts and gripping storytelling. This list gives a good indication of Clare's taste but if your submission doesn’t fit a description here, it doesn’t mean Clare doesn’t want to receive it.

Clare would like you to send a covering letter, a one page synopsis and the first three chapters (Max 5000 words) of your manuscript in a single word document. For picture books, please submit a covering letter and up to three completed texts.

Please send EITHER picture books OR another genre, not both in one submission.

(In addition to the paid sessions, Clare is kindly offering one free session for low income/underrepresented writers. Please email agent121@iaminprint.co.uk to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the discretion of I Am In Print). 

By booking you understand you need to conduct an internet connection test with I Am In Print prior to the event. You also agree to email your material in one document to reach I Am In Print by the stated submission deadline and note that I Am In Print take no responsibility for the advice received during your agent meeting.

The submission deadline is: Wednesday 14th May 2025
