This training course teaches the programming skills that are required for developers to create Windows applications using the C# language.
The Programming in C# (20483) training course teaches developers the programming skills that are required for developers to create Windows applications using the C# language. During your five days in the classroom, you will review the basics of C# program structure, language syntax, and implementation details, and then consolidate your knowledge throughout the week as you build an application that incorporates several features of the .NET Framework 4.5.
