We provide course about Asynchronous Programming in C#. Discover the practical power of Asynchronous Programming in C# and gain the expertise needed to write responsive, efficient, and scalable applications.
What will developers learn:
This comprehensive two-day course for seasoned C# and .NET developers will cover a wide range of topics, from threads, tasks and async/await to advanced features like task schedulers and synchronization contexts.
Included are plenty of hands-on exercises that enable you to master and apply the concepts of asynchronous programming. By the end of this course, you will understand how to use asynchronous techniques to optimize your applications’ efficiency, scalability, and responsiveness.

Target audience:
Experienced C# developers who want to understand how to correctly write asynchronous programming to enhance their applications using asynchronous and parallel programming.
In today’s dynamic software landscape, mastering asynchronous programming is increasingly essential for writing faster, hardware-optimized applications. As multi-core CPUs are now standard, parallel processing is the key to unlocking performance. This course is designed for C# developers seeking to take their apps to the next level.
Prerequisites:
• To get the most out of this training, participants should have at least one year of experience as a C# developer. A strong understanding of C#, including generics, lambdas, and LINQ, is crucial. Previous experience in parallel or async programming is not required. This course is up-to-date with .NET 9 and C#13.
