IT Departments Seek .NET Skills

default-16x9

Training decision makers say that .NET development is set to be a top priority for IT departments in 2006.

Training company QA polled decision-makers on the five technology areas that would be of importance to their organisation in the next 12 months.

.NET development was the leader with over a third of the organisations rating it as one of their top priorities.

QA Principal Technologist and .NET expert, Dave Wheeler, said: “With the launch of .NET 2.0 and Microsoft’s Visual Studio 2005 in November 2005, many organisations will be looking to utilise the new technology available. For organisations that have been reluctant to move to .NET, the improved power and ease of use that is available in Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 will finally convince them that now is the time to dive in to the world of managed application development.”

Wheeler added: “Where organisations are going to be introducing .NET 2.0 in 2006 it will be critical to make sure that there are enough people available who have been adequately trained in the technology. ASP.NET 2.0 is radically different from ASP.NET 1.x, so it’s important to get up-to-speed with the changes quickly.”
