 Expert's Corner


 
Jeff Jensen
Intertech Instructor

This month, if you’re up for it, we’d like your opinion on the state of software development and services—complete a 3 question survey and receive an Intertech highlighter pen and a chance to win $50 (1 in 50 odds).

As July’s heat hits Minnesota, we have a hot Software Developer:

  • Davin Mickelson, Intertech Instructor, shares insights on the .NET 2.0 System.Console class
  • There are six tips to help eliminate office pests (hmmm… maybe, I'll try these on my manager)
  • You can spin up quickly on SOA jargon with the SOA cheat sheet
  • For all leaders, there's a brief article on the power of admitting mistakes
  • At the end of the newsletter, there’s a useful download to help eliminate work hassles

As a courtesy for Software Developer recipients, you can pre-register for the Microsoft Team System Oxygen Blast.  If you attended our Oxygen Blast seminar on Ajax, you should have received a special “reward” for the July Complete Ajax course.  If you attended the seminar but didn’t receive a mailing outlining the reward, call your Intertech account executive.

Enjoy the Summer,
Jeff Jensen
Senior Intertech Consultant and Instructor

If you're in Minneapolis/St. Paul, register for our FREE  TEAM SYSTEM seminar on September 6th from 9:00 to 11:00. 

With summer in full swing in Minnesota, September seems like a way out but our last seminar had a second session added and both seminars filled.  To ensure a seat, register early.
