Start learning HTML5.
Seriously, Adobe itself is moving away from Flash by switching to HTML5 for mobile devices, and with the introduction of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, no mobile device in the future will support Flash (except maybe Blackberries, but who cares?.) It is a HUGE security risk, too. All those updates Flash does on your PC? They're to fix security holes. Every time. It's terrible for allowing in Malware.

I was required to take a Flash course at GRCC last year. I'd already heard then that Adobe was starting to move away from Flash for web stuff and focus it on animation only. We had to make websites that were 100% in Flash, which was incredibly stupid. Makes me wonder how long they'll keep teaching it...

Wow. You would think with as much as has been pumped into GRCC and GVSU in the last 10 years or so they'd make sure to be at least CLOSE to the cutting edge, not playing catch-up.

They're doing well with keeping the software up to date, just not the curriculum.
