About Stephen McHenry

Mr. McHenry brings over 25 years of real-world experience to the classroom, plus prior teaching experience at the university level. He has been involved in the development of object-oriented systems since 1985, and used most major OO languages including C++, Objective C, Smalltalk, TOOL (Forté) and Java. Since 1991 he has been teaching the principles of building object systems to students worldwide.

In 1993, he began building distributed object systems, and in 1994, his Object-Oriented Analysis and Design course was selected by Forté Software to be the basis for an OOA&D course designed to teach distributed object principles to their customers. Forté also requested that Mr. McHenry adapt the course to cover additional concepts unique to Forté. Subsequently, Mr. McHenry also taught the Forté version of the course for over four years, both in Forté training centers and at customer sites worldwide.

However, what makes his instruction unique is the fact that Mr. McHenry spends most of his time (over 75%) actually developing distributed object systems using the technologies covered in the courses he teaches. He has experience in areas as diverse as digital commerce (e-commerce), telecommunications, retailing, insurance, health care, human resources, air traffic control, CAD/CAM/CAE and graphics/imaging.

Isn't it about time you took a course from someone who does, instead of just teaches? Here are some things that his students have said about his teaching.
