Kathleen's ready to share her experience with .NET and code generation to empower your staff using custom training techniques. Traditional training techniques present difficulties because it’s hard to learn new things in an isolated environment, then return to your job and try to apply the new ideas. A great deal of relearning is often necessary and the time involved greatly reduces the efficiency of training. You can bypass this inefficiency by using projects your staff is familiar with as the basis of your training. Working with familiar databases, frameworks, and patterns lets your staff focus on what they are learning with fewer distractions. If frameworks and patterns are not the basis for your development today, your staff learns also learns how to use them. Wherever your staff is, this training makes them more effective. At the same time, you’re project moves forward, and you build a stronger team as they work in a facilitated environment.
Custom training is best handled in a dedicated week (approximately 40 hours of class time) with a class of three to eight students. Kathleen plans up-front time to become familiar with your project, and follow-on time for questions and problem solving. If you have an on-site facility, Kathleen can adjust the schedule to let your programmers stay in touch with their normal duties, although the full team’s focus during class is essential to success. This is an extremely cost effective option and is only $6,000 plus expenses through first quarter 2005. Even if your team is small, this will be cheaper than most other training options - and aimed specifically at what your programmers need.

Custom training reflects exactly what you need, so Kathleen will adjust the agenda to fit from the topics like the following:
Principles and steps that make up code generation
Extracting metadata from your databases
Morphing definitions to reflect differences between data and objects
Creating and editing templates
Generating code
Debugging generated code and templates
Writing and protecting handcrafted code
Integrating with other development process like source control and builds
Leveraging infrastructure
Generating user interfaces if appropriate
A subset of standard challenges such as
Handling null values
Varying primary key types (GUID/integer)
Managing child data
Searching large datasets
Switching to stored procs

Custom training is especially beneficial if you’re staff is effective with prior versions of VB. By exploring the specific challenges presented by the application you’re migrating, we’ll make progress as a team while migrating significant portions of your application. Kathleen can teach this course in VB.NET or C#. This class can be taught with a focus on either WinForms or web development, in either a client-server or enterprise approach
Kathleen will adjust the agenda to fit you’re specific needs from the following topics:
Native data types
Role of the CLR, CLI, JIT compiler
Effective use of Visual Studio
Framework highlights
Objects in .NET
Differences between VB6 and VB.NET
Establishing style guidelines
Event handling and event definition
Exception handling
GDI+ graphics
Printing
Database access
XML functionality
WebServices
Security
Deployment
Interop with COM applications
