Reminder: Silverlight 4 is Now Included
If you've been on the fence about whether you need training in Silverlight, this should send you barrelling over the side. Starting in the December classes, the Silverlight Tour will include coverage of all the new Silverlight 4 Beta features. The class also covers the entire Silverlight 3 feature set as well so whether you're preparing a short-term Silverlight 3 project or looking to the future with a long-term Silverlight 4 project, the Silverlight Tour has you covered!
In addition to the great training, attendees to the Silverlight Tour will also receive a free license to Telerik's acclaimed RadControls for Silverlight 3. RadControls are built on Microsoft Silverlight 3 and include 31 UI controls for building rich line-of-business Silverlight applications. The Silverlight controls offer a clean and intuitive API, Blend support and powerful theming capabilities that will radically improve your RIA development. As part of the Silverlight Tour Workshop, attendees will receive this set of controls completely free (a $999 value).

Now that the big news of the Silverlight 4 Beta release is out, we can announce that we've been working hard to update our course to include Silverlight 4 material. Since Silverlight 4 is only in Beta (and no go-live license to boot), the Silverlight Tour will continue to teach Silverlight 3 and show the Silverlight 4 material in addition. This way whether you're building a short-term application you can get your Silverlight 3 needs met, but if you want to learn Silverlight for a long-term project, you can be sure that the Silverlight Tour will prepare you for the Silverlight of tomorrow.
While the labs will continue to be in Silverlight 3, the instructor will be using Visual Studio 2010 and Silverlight 4 to explain how the new features work and how they may impact how you architect you Silverlight solution.
The new Silverlight 4 content will be included in our next tour stops shown below:
