The Quill
Consultancy is attempting to assess the demand for training in the .NET
development products currently being released by Microsoft.
One of our
contract trainers, Jason Cook, has just returned from Sydney after
completing an intensive five day Trainer Preparation for the delivery of a
wide range of courses that are or will become available over the next six
months from Microsoft on the .NET development technologies.
Jason currently
holds Microsoft certifications MCSE, MCDBA, MCSD and MCT and has a
significant experience in wide range of Microsoft development products. He
has also attended Tech-Ed for the last 3 years so is very aware of all new
and upcoming Microsoft technologies and products.
Microsoft have,
or are about to release a significant range of courses in their .NET
development environment. As Tasmania is a relative small training market to
deliver development training into we hope to
receive feedback from major developers on their approach and likely
demand for instructor lead training in this area. For courses to be able
to be run successfully careful planning is required by us to meet the
market demands.
Microsoft have
recently announced a new certification for developers who work with
Microsoft development technologies. The MCAD (Microsoft Certified
Application Developer) requires a pass in two core exams plus one
option.
For details of the
MCAD certification

The MCAD
certification is Microsoft attempt to make the certification of developers
more layered which allows people to reach a number of goals on the way to
premier certification MCSD (Microsoft Certified Solution Developer).
