ASP.Net AJAX

This 4 day course teaches you how to write Rich Internet Applications using AJAX in an ASP.Net environment. It covers the use of the basic AJAX tools, the additions provided by the ASP.Net AJAX Control Toolkit, interacting with server-side code and services, and the AJAX architecture. A major goal of this course is to cover the range of techniques from 'raw' JavaScript to the range of additional tools available. A basic knowledge of web development is assumed, including HTML, JavaScript and ASP.Net using either C# or Visual Basic. If you do not have this experience then additional material can be provided to cover it on the course.

The 4 day course costs £2360 in total for up to 6 students, plus VAT and the instructor's reasonable expenses. Each student beyond 6 would cost £25 for the additional course materials.
