FYI. Dave's course comes highly recommended and is quite a bargain at the price.

> Dave's description:
> 
>> Join us for an interactive hands-on course all about Moose, an OO system for
>> Perl 5 that provides a simple declarative layer of "sugar" on top of a
>> powerful, extensible meta-model.
>> 
>> With Moose, simple classes can be created without writing any subroutines, and
>> complex classes can be simplified. Moose's features include a powerful
>> attribute declaration system, type constraints and coercions, method modifiers
>> ("before", "after", and "around"), a role system (like mixins on steroids),
>> and more. Moose also has a vibrant ecosystem of extensions as seen in the
>> variety of MooseX:: modules on CPAN.
>> 
>> This course will cover Moose's core features, dip a toe into the meta-model,
>> and explore some of the more powerful MooseX:: modules available on CPAN.
>> 
>> Students are expected to bring a laptop, as you will be writing code during
>> the class. You will also be provided with a tarball a week or so before the
>> class is scheduled, which will contain a directory tree skeleton and test
>> files.
