30 Years of Teaching C and C++

Most of the members of our group are programmers,
or looking to become programmers, but it is
possible to earn a living from C and C++ in other
ways.

Jay F. Shachter (the Organizer of the Chicago
C/C++ Users' Group, until someone else volunteers
to do it), has earned his living for the past 30
years mostly as a trainer of programmers and
system administrators. After taking a few minutes
to welcome the new members who joined our group
during the summer, Jay will start off the new
season with a talk about his 30 years of
experience teaching C and C++. This will not be a
PowerPoint presentation, just a telling of
stories, with perhaps some observations on the
long-term trends in the industry.
