And recently released is the .NET 3.5 Enhancements Training Kit - this kit is an addendum to the very successful Visual Studio 2008 training kit that was released back in November and is meant to serve as a structured learning curriculum for the upcoming framework enhancements.
The May Preview release includes updated hands-on-labs as well as new presentations.
The following features had their labs updated in this iteration:
- ASP.NET AJAX History
- ASP.NET MVC
- ASP.NET Dynamic Data
- ADO.NET Data Services
- ADO.NET Entity Framework
Due to the incompatibility between Visual Studio 2008 SP1 beta 1 and the Silverlight 2 SDK beta 1 release, the ASP.NET Silverlight controls lab that was available in the initial release of the kit, won't be available in the May preview.
The following features have supporting presentations included in this iteration:
- ASP.NET MVC
- ASP.NET Dynamic Data
- ADO.NET Data Services
