Entity Framework 6.1 Fundamentals

By Brian Ewoldt | August 19, 2014

New from our instructor in the land of the midnight sun are new courses covering the fundamentals of Entity Framework 6.1. That instructor is Don Kiely...and between high adventure trips, skijoring, saving sled dogs, dodging moose, and running marathons, Don has found the time to work with us to create two excellent new courses. According to Microsoft, Entity Framework (EF) is an object-relational mapper that enables .NET developers to work with relational data using domain-specific objects. It eliminates the need for most of the data-access code that developers usually need to write.

In our first new course, Entity Framework 6.1: Introduction, Don covers the basics from data access issues to the EF API and tools. In the second course, Entity Framework 6.1: Data Model, as the title suggests, Don digs in to the entity data model. These courses total over four hours of video training and are now available.

Watch for more EF courses from Don coming in the near future. In the meantime, I invite you to attend Don's upcoming webinar on the Entity Framework Entity Data Model. He will be broadcasting live from Alaska beginning at 1pm CST on Wednesday, September 10th. (Don't be surprised if you hear his dogs barking at moose in the background!) Register now
