Disclaimer: The actual course content may vary from the above, depending on the trainer, implementation, duration and constellation of participants.

Whether we call it training, course, workshop or seminar, we want to pick up participants at their point and equip them with the necessary practical knowledge so that they can apply the technology directly after the training and deepen it independently.

Goal:

Upon completing this course, you will have mastered C#'s advanced features and be equipped to write applications that deliver exceptional value, performance and scalability. You'll discover proven strategies for maintaining clean, reliable and maintainable code. With enhanced expertise and a comprehensive toolkit at your disposal, you'll confidently tackle complex programming challenges and build cutting-edge applications. The extensive hands-on exercises ensure you can immediately apply these advanced concepts in your own projects.


Form:

A proven mix of presentations, live demonstrations and hands-on exercises. Participants work on real advanced C# programming tasks and can immediately apply the learned concepts. The trainer guides the process with over 20 years of experience and individual support.


Target Audience:

This course is for developers that want to master the advanced features of C#, enabling them to write applications that deliver more value, performance and scalability. The course covers the latest features and inner workings of C# 13 and .NET 9, but is also applicable to developers using older versions of C#.

More about C# Expert



C# Expert is an advanced course that helps developers master the latest and most powerful features of C# and .NET. Crafted with over 20 years of experience, the course teaches best practices and modern development techniques.




History


C# was developed by Microsoft in 2000 under the leadership of Anders Hejlsberg. The language has continuously evolved, with important milestones like Generics in C# 2.0, LINQ in C# 3.0, and async/await in C# 5.0.


With .NET Core and the unification to .NET 5+, Microsoft created a cross-platform, open-source future for C#. Modern features like Pattern Matching, Records, and Non-nullable Reference Types have made the language even more expressive and safer.


Today, C# is one of the most popular programming languages worldwide and is used for everything from web applications to desktop software to cloud services and game development. With C# 13 and .NET 9, Microsoft continues to focus on performance, productivity, and modern development practices.
