Microsoft LatAm offers free .Net online training

Violating that most sacred of capitalistic maxims about there being no free lunches, Microsoft Corp. -- that most capitalistic of software companies -- is rolling out a no-cost .Net online training program for Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking developers.

Called "Desarrollador Cinco Estrellas," which in English means "Five-Star Developer," the program will offer a five-level program whose purpose is to motivate and help developers increase their knowledge of Microsoft"s .Net platform and related technologies, said Federico Raggi, developer director for Microsoft Latin America, the division that created and manages the program.

The program"s first training level, or "star," is already available, while the second level will be launched on Monday in both Spanish and at the end of February in Portuguese. The following three levels will be rolled out, respectively, in March, April and May, he said.

With each level, the sophistication of the training increases and the interaction between the instructors and the students becomes more personal, he said.
