Continuing on with Expert Skills, I’ve now finished Session 1 and sent out a proof to my proofreaders. If you’re on of them, you should have it by now!

Session 1’s taken longer than I expected, but that’s mostly down to the amount of time I’ve spent working on the sample files for the new course. Being Expert Skills, the sample files need to make use of far more complex features than those used in Essential Skills.

So far I think the Expert Skills course does a great job of applying to real-world scenarios. Once it’s finished I’m confident that the two books will be the absolute best way to learn ASP.NET, C# and Visual Studio.

Now that the Excel 2010 Expert Skills video course is complete, I have begun work on the ASP.NET 4.0, C# and Visual Studio 2010 Expert Skills book.

If you’re a proofreader, you can expect to start receiving PDF versions of the first drafts in the coming weeks.

I have also revised the course outline, adding an entirely new session on compiler directives and advanced debugging techniques. The outline is likely to continue to change as I receive more suggestions from our readers.

If you have a suggestion for something you’d like to see in the Expert Skills course, get in touch and let me know!
