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.

Sample customer feedback

"Really good, knowledgeable trainer. Previously used Wise Owl and found them to be excellent."

Helen Bailey (Retail Insight (RI))

"We had a great trainer, very patient and excellent at explaining the content of the course. The course venue and equipment provided was of a very high standard, especially the in-depth instruction manual and memory stick (meaning we could take the code we’d wrote home with us). We were also taken out for lunch each day which was a really nice touch. Would highly recommend. "

Claire Leonard (Barbican Insurance Group)

"I thought it was excellent. Covers everything that's needed and has given me the confidence to use it in my role everyday."

Annabel Devall (Cambridgeshire Constabulary)

"The trainer was very friendly, patient and pleasant in delivering the course."

Rachel Mak (NHS Brent CCG)

"Good trainer; 10/10 for content, knowledge & helpfulness. Good communication/responses to my challenges and good reviews from our company."
