SSW announces "NETaway 2002 - Australia's premier
training event for .NET, set amongst the vineyards in
the Hunter Valley.
Sydney - SSW, a Microsoft Partner has announced
'NETaway 2002' - designed to be the premier training
event of the year for technical developers, managers,
consultants and enthusiasts of the .NET platform. This
is the only event of it's kind in Australia.
The intensive week-long training in .NET will be a
mixture of both seminars and hands-on labs, focusing
on the hote .NET issues. Key industry gurus from the
USA and Australia will be there to speak on hot new
technologies and future development issues and trends.
There is also a very special Key Note speaker
attending as a suprise. To spice things up, there are
also planned events, such as golf and tennis
tournaments, grape stomping and, of course, a wine
tour of the region.
Sessions include: the .NET Framework, Visual Studio,
ASP.NET XML Web Services, ADO. The event is designed
to be very practical, with break out sessions,
hands-on learning labs to give delegates a chance to
try what they're learning.
Charles Sterling from Microsoft states the importance
of this course: "this is an essential event for anyone
working on a .NET project in the next year" he says.
And the course design and location, he says, is
carefully designed to maximise learning: "Unlike
normal training courses in the city, where the
delegate is distracted by work and committments, this
retreat will enable people to really concentrate on
intensive learnings during the day, with a stunning
location and fun activities to really unwind and
relax."
Another different approach to the training is
delegates are encouraged to bring along their family.
Accommodation is free to both partners and children,
so the delegate can really relax and enjoy the
beautiful environment. And being in the heart of wine
country with many activities to enjoy, the kids will
not be short of things to do during the day.
