Hey Students… Go Dev Mental!

31 Aug

godevmental You may have noticed our past post Microsoft Event: Tech Days 2010 coming this fall which outlined the Microsoft Tech Days event that is making it’s away around Canada starting in 2 weeks. Tech Days is an incredible learning experience, but does come at a cost [$349.00 Early Bird Pricing Available], if you’re a student you’re probably thinking that is your food budget for second semester. This year is your lucky year…

Touring with Tech Days is an event focused on Students called Go Dev Mental, which contains two tracks focusing on Microsoft Technologies.

windows-phone-7 The First Track is all about the upcoming Windows Phone 7 which will cover developing for the Phone using the two development platforms Microsoft Silverlight which brings a Rich Experience to the phone, as well as, the XNA Framework which allows developers to create games on the Windows Phone (but also Zune, PC and XBOX 360)

Microsoft Web Stack The Second Track focuses on the Microsoft Web Platform which will introduce students to Microsoft WebMatrix, an application for building and deploying awesome websites. This track also features Microsoft Silverlight and Expression Blend for building animated content on the web in a “Flash”-y fashion.

If you’re a Student, and would like to take a step into the Microsoft Development Stack, Register for Go Dev Mental today! In preparation for the event check out the Microsoft Dream Spark Program to get a set of Microsoft Development Tools at No Charge.
