The 5-day Learning to Program with VB.NET course is designed for students who have never done any programming before, and provides an introduction to .NET application development using the VB.NET language. Students are introduced to the application development cycle, structure of programs, and specific language syntax. The course also contains "Thinking Like a Programmer" sections that provide students insight on how to develop common algorithms.
Students who already have prior programming experience in a language other than VB.NET would be better served by taking any of HOTT's other 5-day courses that are focused on a specific application type, such as ASP.NET Web Forms Programming Using Visual Basic.NET, ASP.NET MVC Programming Using VB.NET, or Windows Forms Programming Using Visual Basic.NET.
HOTT's 5-day ASP.NET Web Forms Programming Using Visual Basic.NET course gives a thorough introduction to the VB.NET programming language, and then provides students with hands on experience using Visual Studio to create dynamic web sites using the .NET framework and the ASP.NET Web Forms programming model. Students are required to have basic experience in another programming language before attending this course. Having basic knowledge of HTML before taking this course is helpful, but not required.
Students who already understand the fundamentals of the VB.NET languages may be better served by enrolling in the shorter 3-day ASP.NET Web Forms Programming for Experienced Visual Basic.NET Programmers course.
