One place you might try is ICS (Integrated Computer Solutions).
I just signed up to take a couple of their X classes this month.  If
you want, I can let you know what I thought of them when I return.
The classes I'm taking are:  Programming the X Window System, An
Intensive Workshop which ms a 3 day class for people already somewhat
familiar with X11, and then Widget Writing, a 2 day class.  Both
classes are being taught at M.I.T. by one of the guys who helped write
the Athena widget set.I don't have all the paperwork handy, but I
think the first class costs $1400 and the widget writing class is
$700.  The following classes are supposed to be offered in the fall:
Programming the X Window System (for programmers with no X
experience), Overview of the X Window System (for programmers,
management, marketing personnel -- lecture only), and Programming with
the OSF/Motif Toolkit (for programmers with X experience).

I haven't taken these classes, so I have no idea whether they're any
good or not.  If you want more information, call ICS at (617)
547-0510.
