MCIT's certificate helps train developers with the programming skills required to create Windows applications using the C# programming language. Students will be learning the basics of Visual C# program structure, language syntax, and implementation details and then look forward to building an application that incorporates features of the .NET Framework 4.7. This program will also enable you to develop a clear understanding of object-oriented programming concepts and skills using C#, which can be applied to modern software development methodologies. Using the tools provided by the Microsoft .NET Framework, you will design desktop and web applications by using C# and .NET library. You will develop knowledge and skills in the areas of C# along with design patterns.
Describe the core syntax and features of Visual C#.
Create methods, handle exceptions, and describe the monitoring requirements of largescale applications.
Implement the basic structure and essential elements of a typical desktop application.
Create classes, define and implement interfaces, and create and use generic collections.
Use inheritance to create a class hierarchy and to extend a .NET Framework class.
Read and write data using file input/output and streams, and serialize and deserialize data in different formats.
Create and use an entity data model for accessing a database and use LINQ to query data.
Access and query remote data by using the types in the System.Net namespace and WCF Data Services.
Build a graphical user interface by using XAML.
Improve the throughput and response time of applications by using tasks and asynchronous operations.
Integrate unmanaged libraries and dynamic components into a Visual C# application.
Examine the metadata of types by using reflection, creating and using custom attributes, generating code at runtime, and managing assembly versions.
Encrypt and decrypt data by using symmetric and asymmetric encryption.

Upon completing this course, you will receive an industry-recognized certificate from MCIT. Once you complete this exam, you will earn your official C# Programming certification.
I came to Canada with no prior knowledge or experience in programming. I wanted to learn programming in an effective and short amount of time and found that MCIT could do just that. I quickly learned the latest concepts and put them into practice which I found motivating and valuable.
