What are good .NET Training Options in RTP Area?

[Andrew Parker]

I am a member of Trinug and a very experienced, but largely self
taught, .NET developer. I am looking to train 5 new .NET developers
with strong Java/C++ backgrounds in intermediate to advanced features
of C#/.NET and VS2008.

Does anyone have good recommendations for options in the RTP area?

Thanks,
Andrew

In case it was not clear, I am looking for a training facility or
training company in the RTP area to train these folks. It can be live
or mentor led, just looking for recommendations on what good companies
are out there that offer C# and .NET training.

I'd recommend hooking up with Jim Duffy at http://www.takenote.com

If you are interested in online training, you could try the O'Reilly
School of Technology. They have a "certificate" program for .Net. They
also have a discount of 40% off. Reach them at http://www.oreillyschool.com/?75024.

For local training, you could try Global Knowledge in Cary. Reach them
at http://www.globalknowledge.com/.

Let us know what eventually works out for you.

Hi

Dear Ekta Arora, Others:

 

The possibilities of getting a job go beyond your education, experience, additional training, and qualifications, and so on.  Employers are looking for a good fit, and a good part of that comes from personality, how you work with others, and other "soft" skills that you bring to the table.

 

However, sometimes the decision to hire one person over another -- especially in a difficult economy -- can be a tough one. So for that reason alone, anything that you can do "extra" to set yourself apart from other candidates will typically be to your advantage.  Certifications from Microsoft, Cisco, Oracle, CompTIA, and O'Reilly are very good to have, for the training aspect alone.  But if the hiring manager is "splitting hairs" to try to determine which candidate to hire, these might help to serve to your advantage to push you over the edge -- particularly in the event of a tie-breaker.  And even if you are the only candidate, the certifications tell your employer that you are teachable, disciplined, intelligent, and willing to self-educate on your own time and expense.

 

There are other reasons for getting certifications, folks, but this has just been my experience, particularly if you are trying to break into an area for the first time or your college degree(s) don't seem to be enough to convince an employer alone.

 

Have a great day, and don't forget Wednesday Night's TriNUG meeting.  Brian Hitney is an excellent presenter and he will be there to discuss Azure and Cloud Computing.

 

Good luck, and hopefully this helps or makes sense.

 

Sincerely,

 

Jim
