In Objective-C Programming Fundamentals and Advanced LiveLessons, Jiva DeVoe teaches viewers the key concepts and fundamentals of the Objective-C language. He then covers the advanced features of the Objective-C language. When viewers have completed these lessons, they should be able to build and run basic Objective-C programs. They will also have an understanding of the necessary aspects of Objective-C that are needed to begin writing applications using Cocoa and Cocoa Touch.
Developer and author Jiva DeVoe helps viewers understand the fundamentals and advanced portions of the Objective-C language. The video covers:

Basic Objective-C syntax, objects, memory management, protocols, the foundation framework and errors.
The newest features in Objective-C such as ARC, blocks, literals, and properties are included.
How to use blocks
How to use categories to extend the capabilities of existing classes
Key value coding and key value observing
How to use threading to harness the power of multiprocessor and multicore machines
Design patterns commonly used in Objective-C
How to serialize and deserialize objects to property lists and to JSON strings
Best practices for programming clean code in Objective-C
