Microsoft Dot Net Course Contents Training Approach :

The Trainer explains the concept from the basics. After ensuring that every trainee has well understood the concept, the trainer will move on to explaining how to apply the same concept to a realtime project. The trainer will then discuss all the possible interview questions related to the concept in general as well as relating to a real time project.
