Channel 9 Launches Learning Center

2009-10-21T18:41:02.78Z

This morning (Oct 21) at 10 AM PT, Channel 9 launched an online learning center that will play host to developer focused training courses, created by developers for developers. This builds on Channel 9’s history of giving direct access to Microsoft engineers and future technologies. These videos and labs, with links to extensive training kits, allow developers to begin hands-on-learning about emerging technologies at their own pace. The first two labs, released today, include:

· Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2

The developer evangelists from the 10-4 Show are providing videos and labs to get familiar with .NET Framework 4 and Visual Studio 2010. This exclusive opportunity lets developers access courseware online in a self-paced learning experience.

· The most comprehensive Windows 7 Developer training available is now online

These videos, hands-on labs, and real-world samples are the quickest way to ramp up on the new developer features in Windows 7. The new online offerings allow developers to learn at their own pace, downloading only the modules that are relevant for them.
