We produce two different Microsoft Visual Studio (Non-Express) programming  tracks for College Students.  Our tutorials will work with any edition of Visual Basic 2005-2010 (Standard, Professional, Enterprise) but NOT the free Express versions.   We have partnered with the Microsoft® DreamSpark® program to support and advance students learning and skills development, by providing college students the latest developer and design software from Microsoft, at no additional cost.  Click here for more information on this annual DreamSpark subscription program. 

The Learn Visual BASIC and Learn Visual C# courses were both successfully taught by Lou Tylee in a major Washington State University’s Beginning Programming class for many years.
