North Haven, CT December 14, 2001:

New Technology Solutions today announced the availability of .NET developer training in January of 2002. The company will post the 2002 open enrollment .NET training calendar in late December. Onsite .NET training nationwide is available immediately.

“Microsoft’s .NET platform is a sweeping break from the past,” explained Dan Mezick, President, New Technology Solutions. “Developers of every stripe are going to need to learn and understand .NET. Any modern developer ignoring the .NET development platform is making a serious mistake. This includes Java developers, because .NET is a well on it’s way to setting a new and improved software development standard.”

Mezick continued, “For those truly serious about understanding the platform, hands-on training is mandatory. Our fast-paced, hands-on .NET developer training programs are designed to greatly compress the time needed to be an effective .NET developer.”

Visual Studio.NET is the container for most of the major tools necessary for .NET development—ASP.NET. VB.NET, C#.NET, and J#.NET. The Microsoft tools and the .NET platform complete directly with Java-based tools and the Sun J2EE platform. “In many ways, Microsoft’s new .NET platforms and tools take the best ideas out there, and dramatically improve upon them,” continued Mezick. “This platform is redefining the territory for software developers worldwide.”

Delivering platform and tools education to Microsoft developers since 1993, NewTech is familiar with the problems unique to teaching complex concepts and techniques. The company has trained over 60,000 software developers worldwide since 1993.

One challenge facing .NET training providers is the need for developers to truly understand Web Services and object-oriented programming before embarking on any .NET development.

According to Mike Werner, Director of Microsoft’s East Region .NET Developer Strategy, NewTech’s overall .NET training approach hits the bulls-eye. “Microsoft's .NET platform is used to build complex, scalable apps base on XML and Web Services. Developers ready to ramp on .NET development absolutely need training, particularly in object-oriented techniques and Web Services architecture. NewTech's training delivers what developers need to be successful with .NET."

NewTech has a long history of innovation in developer training. The company created the VB BOOTCAMP®, a widely imitated, fast-paced seminar that trained thousands of developers nationwide. The company also created the The VB6 Certification Exam Guide and developer related software patents.

NewTech is delivering .NET training nationwide, effective today, in VB.NET. ASP.NET, and C#.NET.

These courses are presented in an onsite, hands-on format at corporations throughout the United States. Development teams may call 203 239 6874 x106 to schedule onsite training. The schedule of enrollment courses in .NET tools and platforms will be posted to the NewTech web site in late December. Developers may view VB.NET and ASP.NET outlines on the NewTech web immediately.
