______________Hard Core EF4_____________

Full Day of Advanced Entity Framework 4 Workshop
with Julie Lerman

You’ve been working with Entity Framework 3.5 or maybe even Entity Framework 4, but are ready to take your EF4 code further. You’ve got nagging questions and wish you could just spend a day with an Entity Framework guru!

Now’s your chance! On October 22nd, Julie Lerman will be conducting a full day advanced Entity Framework 4 workshop in London.

The day will center around the benefits of EF4’s new POCO support.

You’ll learn the different ways that you can enable POCO support in Entity Framework

You’ll then see how to take advantage of the POCO support.

• Customizing the code generation templates.
• Using POCOS in WCF services without pulling your hair out to deal with change tracking
• Building smarter architectures with repositories, Unit of Work
• Unit testing with fake contexts and fake data without hitting the database.

½ day of demos + ½ day of Q&A with the pro= 
1 day of Hard Core Entity Framework 4.

Class Size: This will be a relatively small class in a room that holds only 30 attendees. This ensures a good interaction between participants and the instructor.

Class Format: The class is presentation style with Q&A. There will not be hands on labs. However, feel free to bring your laptop.

Copy of Programming Entity Framework Included with Class!

You will also receive a free PDF copy of Programming Entity Framework 2nd Edition by Julie as part of the class. If you would prefer a print version, please contact Julie well in advance of the class to make arrangements.

Schedule:

9am - 12pm: Presentations and Q&A

12pm - 1pm: Lunch Break

1pm - 4pm: Presentations and Q&A

Lunch:

I can get lunch catered (covered by your registration fee) which means we're stuck in the building all day or we can go outside and hit one of the many eateries in and around Cardinal Place such as Marks & Spencers, Costa, Nando, McDonald's etc. In the latter case, you'd have to cover lunch cost yourself. Let me know your preference!
