The HeiReS Expert Training:
Software Development for WPF

WPF – short for Windows Presentation Foundation – is the modern standard for modern Windows software based on .Net with C# and XAML. We help your developers and your software to take the next development leap pragmatically and compactly in two days.

Target group of the training

Senior and junior developers

Challenge

Especially with existing software solutions, there is no way around modernising at some point. Many companies have long-running software applications, some of which have been in use for more than 20 years. These are mostly designed for the Windows platform. WPF with .NET, C# and XAML, introduced in 2006, is the most professional and sensible solution for modernising your LOB applications. Many developers are very good at their craft. Nevertheless, they encounter challenges again and again. This often slows down modernisation.

Our training as a solution

In this hands-on training, our expert Lars Heinrich brings you closer to the topics. No training from above, but right in the middle.  – Also due to his experience from large projects. With a view to grown software projects, he brings your developers to the next level of line-of-business applications. He is a certified Microsoft developer (MCSD) with many years of WPF experience. In his everyday work as development manager at HeiReS, WPF is still “bread and butter” business. Your developers therefore also receive many tips from practical experience. If desired, Lars Heinrich will work his way into your solutions and provide real solutions to problems at the same time.

A practical training with many tips, suggestions for solutions for own projects and integration into the daily work routine is what makes a successful software training for me.

Knowledge transfer with high added value

Training strategy and practical approach

Our training strategy is a balanced mix of theory and practice. In comprehensible blocks, the participants learn the theory and correlations and demonstrate the work steps. These are followed up in practical exercises on their own computers. In doing so, we become as concrete as possible and address your use cases. We share best practices and experiences with you. In this way, the training also becomes a bit of consulting – with practical results.

Practical approach

The exercises are aligned with the client’s thematic field. Within the framework of these practical cases, the participants receive help to help themselves. Your challenges are the focus. This enables you to achieve maximum added value.
