20483 Programming in C#

Course Description
This training course teaches developers the programming skills that are required to create Windows applications using the Visual C# language. During the training students review the basics of Visual C# program structure, language syntax, and implementation details. This course is intended for experienced developers who already have programming experience in C, C++, JavaScript, Objective-C, Microsoft Visual Basic®, or Java and understand the concepts of object-oriented programming. Students will consolidate their knowledge as they will build an application that incorporates several features of the .NET Framework 4.7.
