Object Innovations releases new courses in ADO.NET and Windows Forms

January 27, 2004. Object Innovations today released two new .NET courses, on ADO.NET and Windows Forms. Both courses use C# as the development language and are part of Object Innovations’ core curriculum in Microsoft .NET. Parallel courses using VB.NET will be available shortly.

ADO.NET is an important new data access technology in the .NET Framework. Much more than a successor to ADO, it introduces important new concepts such as support for disconnected database applications using DataSets. The new programming model provides access to both relational and XML data in a seamless manner. The new three-day course from Object Innovations, 413 ADO.NET Using C#, provides a thorough and practical introduction to the subject. A comprehensive case study and many example programs are included.

Much attention has been paid to the support for Web applications offered by .NET. Of equal importance is a new programming model, Windows Forms, for creating Windows applications. This programming model is both very powerful and easy to use, and works identically in the major .NET development languages, including C# and VB.NET. The new three-day course, 415 Windows Forms Using C#, gives a thorough introduction to building Windows applications using the new tools.

The new courses are part of Object Innovations’ extensive curriculum of courses and books on Microsoft .NET.

Shipments of the new courseware begins immediately.
