C# Training

Intermediate C# training course - Classes, LINQ and Entity Frameworks

£795 + VAT for most venues (£895 + VAT for London)

2 days

This intermediate-level C# course assumes that you're already familiar with the basics of C# programming (so you know how to use variables, write conditions and create loops). You suspect (correctly) that the key to understanding C# is knowing how to create and use classes, and you'd also like to learn a quick and easy way to access data so that you can use it in your application.
