Learn .NET your way – by writing code
Everyone knows all the reasons to keep your skills up-to-date: you get the best assignments, the respect of your peers and management, and knowing the latest technologies is why you became a developer. Then why is it so hard to find the time to keep up? It’s a constant struggle against deadlines, bug fixes and feature creep. You can download the latest SDKs and experiment on your own, but it’s an uphill battle for most developers.
InnerWorkings is here to help. We’ve developed a revolutionary way for developers to learn .NET skills. You write real code in Visual Studio to solve practical coding challenges, at your own pace and on your own schedule. Your solution is evaluated automatically by our code-checking engine, feedback is provided, and you can track your progress. All the major .NET technologies are covered. It’s a great, developer-friendly system, and there’s nothing like it available anywhere else! Check out our Free Trial today or watch the short introductory video below from our Research & Development team.
Take .NET training that’s 100% practice-based.
Theory is fine, but practice is better. With InnerWorkings, you solve practical programming challenges by writing real code in Visual Studio. Take a Quick Tour of our practice environment to see how it works. “The task oriented system of learning is very natural. It's exactly how I learn things in the real world” (Technical Lead, Citigroup).
Gain skills by solving problems using key .NET techniques.
Our catalog contains 600+ hours of hands-on learning, covering all major .NET technologies, in both Visual Basic and C#. Take a closer look at the Catalog to see the breadth and depth of our developer learning solutions.
Work at your own pace.
Work on InnerWorkings challenges whenever and wherever you want – after work, over lunch, between projects. Most challenges take around 30 minutes to solve (of course, your mileage may vary)! And you can also work with them when offline.
Keep up with the latest technologies.
Become proficient in technologies that haven’t even been released yet. We offered training for major technologies such as WCF, WPF, ASP.NET AJAX, Silverlight (and much more) while they were still in beta.
Find help when you need it.
Safari Books Online provides content from noted technical publishers such as Pearson, O'Reilly and Microsoft Press. Our coding challenge links directly to related Safari topics, MSDN articles and useful ‘how-to’ videos. It all combines to deliver a compelling and effective learning experience for developers. “InnerWorkings combines the best features of computer based training with the depth you can usually only find in a good programming book” (Architect, Merrill Lynch).
Prove your abilities.
When you complete an InnerWorkings challenge, you have validated proof of your abilities. We offer a host of achievement certificates to mark major milestones in your learning progress. Use it as your passport to working on the best teams and projects in your organization.
