Video training is highly effective when the quality of the content is excellent and the information is reinforced through both challenges and achievements. Whether you’re looking to learn more about web development or design or maybe even mobile development, Treehouse has you covered. Let’s take a look at the offering.
Treehouse - A better way to learn technology
Treehouse bills itself as “a better way to learn technology”. After a brief look through the courses offered, I have to agree. The video content here is top-notch and the challenges and achievements keep things interesting. One additional thing I like about Treehouse is that they provide full text transcripts for each video as well as extra credit and teacher’s notes. It really is a great way to learn.

Summary
