Webinar Description
C# Webinar IV focuses on building reliable, production-ready .NET Core applications. In this hands-on session, participants learn how to diagnose errors, handle exceptions cleanly, and debug applications effectively using professional tools.
Rather than avoiding errors, this webinar teaches how to anticipate, understand, and manage them. Labs are built around realistic failure scenarios so learners gain confidence troubleshooting problems and strengthening application stability.
All development and debugging is performed in Visual Studio, reinforcing workflows used in professional .NET environments.
Lab & Exercise Structure
Each lab is:
Instructor-guided with live explanation
Based on real-world failure scenarios
Focused on understanding root causes
Built and debugged in Visual Studio
Lab code serves as reusable reference material for future projects.
