Course content

74 sections97 lectures50h 21m total length
  • Introduction To Collection Of Classes45:04

    Discover how collections and generics work in dotnet, from ArrayList and Hashtable to Dictionary and SortedList, using System.Collections and System.Collections.Generic, with interfaces, enumeration, and thread-safe wrappers.

  • Introduction to Collection of Classes #1
  • IEnumarable, IComparable And IComparer Interface22:14

    Demonstrate iterating a collection of employees with enumerable interfaces such as IEnumerable and IEnumerator, and sorting via IComparable or IComparer, including a dedicated comparer for id-based order, and using foreach.

  • IEnumerable, IComparable And IComparer Interface #2
  • Writing Generic Classes And Methods45:15

    Explore how generics enable writing a single, type-safe stack class and generic methods, avoiding boxing, improving performance, while using constraints to govern type parameters.

  • Writing Generic Classes And Methods #3
  • Generic Collection Classes31:12

    Understand why generic collection classes in System.Collections.Generic outperform ArrayList and Hashtable, and learn to use List, Dictionary, and sorting with IComparable and IComparer for type-safe code.

  • Generic Collection Classes #4

Requirements

  • Prior working knowledge of C# fundamentals is required — this course does not cover basic syntax, variables, or introductory programming concepts
  • Solid understanding of OOP concepts: classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism, and encapsulation
  • Basic familiarity with the .NET framework and Visual Studio IDE (Community Edition is free and fully sufficient)
  • A Windows computer is required for WinForms and database demonstrations
  • No prior experience with ADO. NET, WinForms, Reflection, Windows Services, or advanced topics is needed — all are taught from the ground up within this course

Description

This is not a C# introduction. This course picks up where beginner and intermediate courses leave off — and covers the advanced topics that enterprise .NET development actually demands.

If you have completed a C# fundamentals course and want to build real-world Windows applications, connect to databases directly using ADO. NET, design N-Tier architectures, write multithreaded systems, and understand how the .NET runtime behaves at a deeper level — this is the course built for that next step.

And here is something worth knowing before you compare courses: the most popular C# course on Udemy with 35,000+ students explicitly states that ADO. NET, WinForms, and Assemblies are NOT covered. This course covers all three — in depth, with real-world examples and enterprise implementation patterns.


Built by Sandeep Soni, a Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT), Azure Solution Architect, and corporate technology trainer with over 30 years of experience, this course reflects the teaching approach that has helped more than 500,000 IT professionals build practical, job-ready cloud skills across the USA, UK, Australia, and the Middle East. Sandeep holds 20+ Microsoft certifications and has spent decades helping developers, administrators, and architects master Microsoft technologies in real-world enterprise environments.

What you will master, topic by topic:

Advanced Collections and Generics — Go deep into how generic collections work in C# and how to design type-safe, reusable data structures. Understand generics, interfaces, and assemblies at the level that separates mid-level developers from senior engineers.


Exception Handling and System-Level Programming
— Implement production-grade exception handling with custom exceptions, best practices for catch strategies, and hands-on work with streams, file I/O, serialization, and deserialization. These are the patterns used in real enterprise codebases.


Reflection, Attributes, and Unsafe Code
— Inspect and manipulate .NET assemblies, types, and members at runtime using reflection. Work with custom attributes and understand unsafe code — topics that give you insight into how the .NET runtime actually executes your programs.

Windows Forms Application Development — Build complete desktop applications using WinForms. You will work with controls, dialogs, menus, GDI graphics and drawing objects, background workers, drag-and-drop functionality, authentication systems, and form inheritance. WinForms remains widely deployed in enterprise environments — and this course covers it end to end.


ADO. NET Database Programming
— Connect C# applications directly to databases with full ADO. NET coverage: CRUD operations, parameterized queries, stored procedures, transaction management, concurrency handling, datasets, datatables, and asynchronous database execution. This is direct database access — no ORM abstraction — giving you complete control and a deep understanding of how .NET interacts with SQL. The top competitor courses do not cover ADO. NET. This course does.


N-Tier Architecture
— Design and implement enterprise application architecture with clean separation of presentation, business logic, and data access layers. Understand how professional .NET applications are structured for maintainability and scalability.

Windows Services — Build and deploy Windows Services for background processing and automation tasks in enterprise Windows environments — a capability no competitor course currently covers.


Delegates, Events, and Modern C# Features
— Work with delegates, events, operator overloading, extension methods, anonymous types, tuples, and the modern C# language enhancements used in real projects. These are the features that make production C# code expressive and maintainable.


Multithreading and Async Programming
— Build multithreaded applications using Thread, ThreadPool, Task, Task Parallel Library, synchronization primitives, and async/await. Understand where concurrency helps and where it introduces risk — and how to write thread-safe code that performs correctly under load.


Performance, Debugging, and Diagnostics
— Use professional .NET diagnostic tools and APIs to identify bottlenecks, debug complex issues, and optimize application performance in real environments.

95+ Practice Tests — No other C# course in this category comes close to this. Validate your understanding across every major topic with over 95 real practice questions covering advanced C# concepts, ADO. NET, WinForms, multithreading, reflection, and enterprise patterns. Use them to identify gaps, reinforce learning, and build genuine confidence in your advanced C# knowledge.


Your transformation:

By completing this course, you will be able to build complete Windows desktop applications using WinForms, connect applications directly to databases using ADO. NET, design enterprise-grade N-Tier architectures, write multithreaded and asynchronous systems, and understand the .NET runtime at a level that makes you genuinely effective in enterprise development environments.

These are the skills that distinguish senior .NET developers from intermediate ones — not just syntax knowledge, but the practical capability to build, connect, and ship real applications.

Whether you are a .NET developer ready to go deeper, a developer building Windows desktop applications, or an engineer who needs direct database access without an ORM, this course gives you the advanced foundation enterprise development requires.
