 |  |  Let Software Legend and Master Instructor 
David Platt ease your conversion to Microsoft .NET. Your team's time, your 
project's success, and, let's face it, your career path, are far too valuable to 
take one-size-fits-all instruction, to have some art major come in and read you 
a deck of PowerPoint slides. You want the guy who wrote Microsoft's lead book on 
the topic, the guy who teaches it today at Harvard University Extension School, 
the guy who's seen hundreds of development projects, knows what makes them 
succeed, and most important, can explain it to you better than anyone else.  Dave will customize a 
					course of instruction to your specific needs. He doesn't use 
					PowerPoint slides, he teaches with books and with code, 
					Code, CODE! After every class, you get a 1-hour follow-up 
					online meeting, and 90 days of email question support. All 
					classes are available in both C# and Visual Basic.   There aren't any 
					pre-requisites. Dave will pick your team up wherever they 
					are, and jump start them towards YOUR specific goals. We can 
					start with languages if we need to, or skip them if you 
					already know C# or VB. We can stay a little while in 
					ASP.NET, or longer if you need it, or skip that topic 
					entirely if browser-based applications aren't where you need 
					to be. The same applies to web services and all other topics. YOU'RE in control.  Below you'll see an 
					example of a .NET course, but every customer's situation is 
					unique. Call today and let us customize a class for your 
					team.  Sample 
					Curriculum, Will Be Customized To Your Needs
