>A ConferenceXP pre-workshop training session was held on Wednesday, June 
>15, 2005. This provided a fast-paced, one-day class on Microsoft .NET, 
>Microsoft Visual Studio .NET, and Microsoft Visual C#®. It was designed 
>for professional developers or advanced computer science students with 
>object oriented-programming (OOP) experience in C++ or Java who have 
>written several large applications. However, security, database, and Web 
>development experience were not required. This class, taught by 
><http://www.develop.com>DevelopMentor, was a subset of their highly 
>respected curricula of .NET courses.
>
>Topics covered included:
>§  .NET Platform architecture (covered new 2.0 features as well)
>§  Overview of C# programming
>§  Reference and Value Types (included Generics from 2.0)
>§  Garbage collection
>§  Delegates and Events
>§  Async execution and synchronization
>
>If you are new to developing on ConferenceXP or new to C# and managed 
>code,

>the videos of the pre-workshop training prior to registering and attending 
>this year’s workshop (note: requires Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 or later).
