Wannabe

Our boss wants to send us to some training.

I want to be able to change my name from "Wannabe" to "Knowitall". Can some
of you smart people suggest places where I can go to get real good advanced
ASP.Net or C# training?
 
I own a technology training firm in the Northeast
(http://TechTrainSolutions.com) and can tell you that there are many factors
that go into a really good learning experience.

You should start by telling us where you are and how much your training
budget is.

If you last sentence was a question, then, I think it will help. The way I
look at is, there are technologies that I do not use because I do not know
they are available. And that is what I would think an advanced course in C#
would help me.

Good insight though...thanks a lot.
 
I would agree with John Timney in that, IMO, there is no such thing as an
"advanced course" in programming - all they can do is teach you the
syntax, after which it's down to you to gain experience in the real world.

I'm not sure that's what John said and I'd take great exception to the
statement overall. While I certainly agree that you'll never become a guru
from taking a course. If done right, you'll get a lot more out of a class
than just syntax. The best instructors are those that also use the
technology they teach and thus, have experience that can't be gained from
just reading a manual. Those instructors will bring that experience into
the classroom and convey the "why" as much as the "how". And, honestly,
haven't we all found ourselves in situations where we get something to work,
but don't necessarially understand "why" it works"?
