Information regarding subscription levels!

As a new trial subscriber I was hoping that somebody could explain in a little more detail on the differences between the basic and pro membership levels.

The only info I can find is that the pro levels includes conference video's and workshops.

As Im new here I have absolutely what these are and how they can benefit me. Im not an advanced coder and only have a basic understanding of html and css at this point so I'm unsure as to whether a pro account would benefit at this stage. Any support would be hugely appreciated, Thank you.

pro levels includes conference video's and workshops.

yes thats what the difference is (besides the price of course)

Workshops are short (usually under an hour) videos that cover what I would consider "special topics" that don't need an entire course devoted to them. They cover specific aspects of a certain category or how to use a certain development tool

For example, one of the iOS workshops covers local notifications which is a specific aspect of iOS development. Another workshop covers using Git with a team.

The workshops are useful, but if I was just starting out I probably would not feel the need to use them just yet. You may want to wait until you get a little more content under your belt that way more of the workshops apply to you.

That is exactly what I thought. Thank you for your input. I would however be quite interested to learn exactly what the conference video's are and how their use can affect my study.
