SharePoint 2013 Developer, Part 04 of 15: Using .NET

Course description

Just like developing in the .NET framework, in order to be successful as a SharePoint developer you need to have a good understanding of what the core classes are and how to use them. You also need to understand SharePoint security and how to troubleshoot when things go wrong. We will go over these concepts so that you will have the basic knowledge to start writing code for your SharePoint solutions and be able to efficiently debug when you have errors.

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.
