.NET for VFP Developers Training
This class
helps Visual FoxPro developers leverage what they know about VFP in
learning .NET. This includes understanding the languages, tools,
object-orientation, as well as best software development practices.
This live, online
training class is taught by Kevin McNeish, the author of the book
.NET for Visual FoxPro Developers, a
Microsoft .NET MVP for the past seven years, and an INETA speaker.
This
updated class covers the latest .NET 4.0 and Visual Studio 2010
technologies.
Each session is 5 hours long and there is 1 session per day for 3 days.
The regular cost for the class is $599 or just $499 if you take
advantage of our early-bird specials!
Quotes from Students
Thank you for an outstanding three days. I was looking
for "full immersion" to jump start my involvement with .NET, and this
training session delivered. The recordings will be particularly valuable
as a way to go back and spend some real hands-on time in .NET to
reinforce what we learned during the live sessions.
- Rick Borup

and Web applications, normalizing your application logic, and providing flexible
data access.

How it works
The
live training class is broadcast
directly to your company using Citrix's www.gotomeeting.com.
.
All you need is a computer with a high speed internet connection and a
phone. During each training session you simply connect to the training
seminar via the internet and you see the trainer's computer in a window on
your machine. If multiple students at your company want to take the class
(Note: Each participant must pay for the class) you can simply hook up a
projector to your computer so everyone in the room can see. As the trainer
steps through presentations and uses Visual Studio to create and
execute code samples you see it all as it is happening.
For audio hookup, you call into the specified phone number and join a conference
call where you can hear the trainer and vice versa, or you can use VoIP and
connect with a headset and microphone. To minimize disruptions,
you can post questions in a chat window for the instructor to answer.

provider. If you use Voice-Over-IP or if you have free unlimited long distance calls, then the call is
free.
