Are there any good training offerings coming up on the west coast, ideally  
in either Seattle, Portland, or San Francisco?

If you actually live in Seattle, I think the Seattle Ruby Brigade has some kind of training classes set up with the U of Washington. But other than that, I don't know of any formal training. If you have enough students, I'd imagine someone in any one of those cities would be willing to put on a course -- I don't know about SFO, but both Seattle and Portland (my home town) have some world-class Rubyists walking the streets looking for ways to enhance the world. 😉

Unfortunately, it's safe to say that our budget is small enough, that we're  
much better off sending the 2-3 people in my small company who would benefit  
from it to something that is already planned and put together.
