If you are interested in learning Microsoft .NET technologies from scratch then you are in luck. Microsoft has launched a new centralized learning environment on the web called Beginner Developer Learning Center.
I really like the way things are organized on the site. It will definitely help even a non-programmer to pick up things and not overwhelmed by the content. The site has huge library of learning content starting from the very basics and guiding you through step-by-step into becoming a fully-fledged developer.
The content is organized into two development tracks: Windows Development and Web Development. You can choose the track of your liking. They have nice lesson with options to follow in VB .NET or C#. The web track has extensive coverage of ASP .NET.
Within a particular track the lessons are organized in 3 tiers, allowing you to choose lessons based on your skills:
- Tier 1: Great place to start for someone new to programming
- Tier 2: Cover a lot of the core concepts of Windows and Web development and assume prior understanding of foundations of .NET
- Tier 3: Expand your knowledge of Windows and Web development with more advanced concepts such as data access and debugging
You can read the lessons online, download them as PDF files and even rate the lessons.
It would have been nice if you could login and track your progress on the lessons and the system kept a record of what all you have completed.
