These are the Courses you would have to take to become an MCAD.NET – Microsoft Certified Application Developer for .NET. I really don’t want to spend the money for classe, so I am learning via books and the web. I have a membership to http://www.LearnVisualStudio.Net. I am already comfortable with Classic ASP and VBScript, but nobody is hiring for those skills. I even searched http://www.indeed.com. I also understand the basics of Object Oriented Programming (Classes, Methods, Constructors, and such)
