Looking forward to seeing everyone there.
Doing .NET Days – Latest
The inaugural “doing .NET days” is filling up fast but there are a few spots left. If you are interested in learning more about LINQ and it’s different flavours and getting an introductory look at nServiceBus (a mighty powerful Framework for Distributed Systems development), then please grab one of the few remaining spots before they disappear.
You can find more details about the event here and here.
Announcing “Doing .NET Days” – Day 1 (.NET Training)
Something that has been on my mind for some time now has been an urge to do 
some local community work through my council community centre and “Doing .NET Days” is the expression of that urge. What is “Doing .NET Days”? The idea is that once a month I will be offering free (gold coin donation) whirlwind introductory level training on a variety of subjects, approximately three subjects per .NET Day!
The venue for “Doing .NET Days” will be static for the time being and the event be conducted at the Point Cook Community Centre in Point Cook Melbourne Australia. The number of seats for the event is limited (size of the room) and for the moment it caters to 10 seats (each with a PC supplied) so if you want to be involved you will need to be in the first 10 to register. if you want to be introduced to something new that you might not have had the time to check out till now.
Doing .NET Days – Day #1 Agenda
To kick things off were going to take a look at the following:
- An introductory look at messaging with NServiceBus.
- An introductory look at LINQ and it’s flavour of providers (LINQ To Objects, XML, SQL and Entity Framework)
To start off with I am holding 5 seats for graduates yet to find their first developer role in the workforce. I remember what it’s like trying to break in and get that first gig and I would have appreciated the help back then! If the graduate positions are not taken up within the next two weeks, I will open those seats up as well. Here are the rest of the event details:
- Saturday 22th August 2009
- Location – Point Community Centre
- 10:00 AM – 4:00PM
- Lunch is BYO or there are a number of cafes and restaurants in the town centre.
- To register email me your details and I will contact you with further details.
I will post a comment on this post every time a position is taken up so people can tell how many positions remain open.
