    4 Days

You can create ASP.NET websites using either webforms (for which we run separate 3-day courses in either VB or C#) or MVC (standing for Model View Controller, the subject of this course). As a rough overview, MVC requires a higher level of programming ability, lets you get closer to the HTML of a website and is - in Wise Owl's opinion - a more productive and more enjoyable development environment than standard ASP.NET webforms. However, the learning curve is also longer!

On this four-day course, you'll learn about views, models, controllers and routers; you'll learn how to use the entity data framework, and access data using LINQ; and you'll learn a fair bit about C# classes. Note that the course doesn't cover website security.

There is no VB equivalent of this course, because we've reluctantly concluded that C# is winning the programming wars, but if you are a VB guru you'll find it easy to adjust to the semi-colons and case-sensitivity of C#!
