Course description

Early versions of SharePoint were not very popular with .NET developers because the tooling was either not available at all or was very limited. The home of .NET developers, Visual Studio, was not equipped to make working with the early versions of SharePoint very easy. Now the tooling is light years ahead and working with SharePoint in Visual Studio 2012 is extremely integrated and productive experience. We will look at the tools available in Visual Studio and how to use them to maximize SharePoint development productivity. After this course, you will be armed with the knowledge to know how to use the various project and item templates in Visual Studio 2012 that make SharePoint development a great experience.

Each LearnNowOnline training course is made up of Modules (typically an hour in length). Within each module there are Topics (typically 15-30 minutes each) and Subtopics (typically 2-5 minutes each). There is a Post Exam for each Module that must be passed with a score of 70% or higher to successfully and fully complete the course.


Prerequisites

This course assumes that students have some Web development background and some experience using Visual Studio 2012.
