Course Benefits The .NET Frameworks 3.0 and 3.5 introduced a range of technologies that can greatly simplify the creation of complex distributed applications. In order to take advantage of these technologies, it is necessary to understand them both individually and as an integrated whole. In this course, you gain an understanding of LINQ, WPF, WCF, WF and other .NET technologies, and how they can be used to build sophisticated modern applications.
Who Should Attend Experienced .NET 2.0 developers interested in utilizing the features of .NET 3.0/3.5. Programming experience at the level of Course 503, " Visual Basic Programming for .NET," or Course 419, " C# Programming," is assumed.
Hands-On Training Hands-on exercises provide you with practical experience developing .NET 3.0/3.5 applications. Exercises, presented in Visual Basic or C#, include:
- Retrieving and updating data with LINQ
- Creating WPF-user interfaces
- Building and consuming WCF services
- Orchestrating long-running business processes with persistent state machine workflows
- Calling WCF workflow services from Silverlight
- Animating Silverlight with XAML

"What sets Learning Tree apart is that you get the instructors' wealth of knowledge. They always come up with the goods, and you really can't faze them. For example, one had years of experience and with just one sentence he could help you avoid doing weeks of work on unnecessary things."
