"Ultimately, what I realized is that in losing my job, the O'Reilly certificates have become even more valuable to me than when I was just trying to enhance my skills." -- Michael Jarosik

Visual Basic .NET

In this course, students will have the chance to learn and practice skills in VB.NET, ASP.NET, and web services by building actual working .NET applications. To save time and effort, a "Sandboxed" Visual Studio environment has been set up for students with all of the features needed to build a .NET application, including an IIS server and access database. Using these tools, students will build .NET-based projects that will be evaluated by their instructor, contributing to their portfolio and gaining valuable experience.

Upon completion of the course, students will earn 4 CEUs (Continuing Education Units) and a CEU letter from the University of Illinois Office of Continuing Education.

This course covers topics including: Classes, objects, instantiation, variables, the .NET framework, ADO.NET, ASP.NET, web services, XML, Visual Studio .NET, and more.

 

Lab Fees

Our unique learning methods allow you to have 24-hour access to your lab account, including all coursework, files, development tools, online portfolio, and your Instructor's feedback, for as long as you need. This way, your courses are completely self-paced for your busy schedule. You can freeze and unfreeze your lab account when necessary, and you can even keep the account when you've finished your courses -- to have a portfolio for your resume, to keep practicing your skills, or to create prototypes on a safe system.

Base lab fee is a flat $9.95/month, no matter how many courses you are in. (Linux/Unix courses incur an additional $9.95/month lab fee due to an extra root server account.)
