ASP.NET Core
Advance your developer career with ASP.NET Core training
Gain a practical understanding of ASP.NET to build dynamic, scalable web applications. Through live virtual classroom sessions and live labs, you’ll explore MVC architecture, data access, API development, and security essentials, giving you the skills you need to confidently design, develop, and deploy robust applications.
Learning objectives
- Develop and run ASP.NET web applications
- Apply the MVC design pattern effectively
- Use Razor syntax to build user interfaces
- Connect to databases using Entity Framework Core
- Implement dependency injection and routing
- Create and consume RESTful web services
- Manage session state and handle errors
- Apply unit testing and security best practices
- Deploy applications to IIS and Azure
What you’ll learn
Learn ASP.NET development with a strong focus on structure, clarity and performance. Through practical live labs, you’ll learn the tools and techniques used by experienced developers – including data handling and page rendering – building the confidence and capability to take on modern web projects with precision and efficiency.
Building web apps with MVC and Razor Pages
Learn how to design ASP.NET applications using the MVC pattern to organise code into logical layers. You’ll work with controllers to handle input, models to manage business logic and data, and views to present content to users. Razor syntax enables the creation of fast, dynamic pages with minimal code complexity. This model promotes a streamlined development process, better testing coverage and easier long-term maintenance – essential qualities for scalable, professional-grade web applications.
Data integration and API development
Gain practical experience working with data and developing APIs using practical, real-world techniques. You’ll use Entity Framework Core to connect to databases, run queries, update records and manage changes with migrations. The course also shows you how to boost performance by choosing the right data-loading strategies, like lazy and eager loading. You’ll then learn how to create RESTful APIs that handle HTTP requests and deliver clear, consistent responses. Throughout, you’ll focus on security, covering authentication, role-based access and Microsoft Identity integration to keep your applications protected.
Testing, deployment and production readiness
Practice testing your applications with xUnit, helping you catch and fix issues early through automated unit tests. You’ll write tests for both controllers and data logic to build confidence in your codebase. Once your application is ready, you’ll move on to deployment - learning how to publish to IIS and host apps on Microsoft Azure. By the end of this course, you’ll have a clear understanding of the full development workflow, from first line of code to go-live deployment.
