.NET Programming with C# Training Course

Who should attend

Our intro to C# .net training course is aimed at anyone who needs to understand the fundamental principles of .NET programming with C#, in order to be able to then go on to develop commercial Windows, Web (ASP.NET / MVC), server-side or other Microsoft-based solutions (such as BizTalk or SharePoint). The course is well suited to experienced developers coming from backgrounds such as JavaScript, PHP, or Java.

Bring your own device (public scheduled .NET courses in London)

Our C# .NET training course is designed to work with Visual Studio 2017 Community edition so to save time you can install it on your laptop before your course - it's easy to obtain and free to use. That means you can take away all the code you've worked on for further study or even to kick-start your next .NET project.

Prerequisites

Delegates should be comfortable with programming essentials, but no previous Object Oriented Programming experience is assumed (although some OOP experience would certainly be helpful)

Live, instructor-led online and on-site training

We appreciate that you need flexibility to fit in with new working situations - whether you're an individual, part of a distributed team, or simply have projects and deadlines to meet. 

Our remote training can take place online in a virtual classroom, with content split into modules to accommodate your scheduling challenges and meet your learning goals. Get in touch today to find out how we can help design a cost-effective, flexible training solution.

As soon as it's safe, we'll return to also offering the on-site custom training courses and programmes upon which we've built our reputation.
