I started out at the Cold Spring Harbour Laboratories "Computing for Biology" course:http://meetings.cshl.edu/courses/c-info09.shtml Very intense ( and a lot of fun ), but a really superb start in bioinformatics. Their emphasis is not so much on "How to do X, Y, Z", but "How to find out how to do X, Y, Z"...Which will be much more valuable in the long term!And I think you are still in time to apply!
Just a something something...

The extent of my biomed programming was pulling data from pubmed ... but I believe NCBI used to offer courses (Powerscripting Entrez ...or something like that). They may be a good jumping off spot.

There is also Rex Dwyer's book Genomic Perl. The subtitle is "From Bioinformatics Basics to Working Code". It's been on the 'to be read' pile for a couple of months now, so I haven't actually gotten into it yet, but it sounds like it has promise.
