Customized Onsite Training/Consulting in .NET  

Here's why you should consider my training/consulting services for your .NET team:

  • I've been teaching/consulting since 1990:
    • with .NET since 2001
    • with .NET 2.0/C# 2.0 since 2004
    • with .NET 3.0 since 2006
    • with .NET 3.5/C# 3.5 since 2007
  • As a member of the C# Customer Council at Microsoft, and a C# MVP, I can provide you with a unique, insider's view of how .NET works.
  • As an independent consultant, I'm not constrained to give you Microsoft's official, politically-correct view of Windows, .NET, etc.
  • My first and foremost focus is: how do I get what I know into the minds of your team members?
    • My job is NOT to show you how smart I am.
    • My job is to help your team members obtain, integrate and apply my knowledge.
  • I can customize the content of any of my courses to fit your team's needs.
  • I can scale my course presentations to fit the breadth and depth of your diverse team's experience.
  • I eschew theory in favor of practical application and Best Practices.
  • I create my own course materials that rival even the best books or course materials on the subjects covered.
    • My course labs are often kept for reference materials long after a course has ended.
  • My course materials are based on real experiences in the field and not theorectical hysteria.

Let me show you how cost-effective customized, premium training can be: they'll learn more in 3-5 days with me than they will with 12 months of books, videos, online resources and 4 weeks of Certification Courses combined.

I'll work with you to construct a curriculum that will fit the needs of your team, to be hosted in the convenience of your own offices -- or, we'll arrange an appropriate venue conveniently nearby. Please contact me to discuss costs, timeframes, content, setup and other details by email or phone.

Regarding .NET 3.5 / C# 3.0 BootCamp

"Richard offered us a very dynamic, enthusiastic and precise presentation of C# and .NET. Plenty of labs leveraged the rich lecture and demos."
