Windows® Embedded 8 Standard Advanced Training

Windows Embedded 8 Standard Advanced Training - Standard 2 Day course + Optional Development Day

Prerequisites: Students should be familiar with installing, configuring, and maintaining Windows 8.

Below is the WES 8 class syllabus. Continuous update is a unique feature of our WES 8 course. Rather than getting locked into a set course material, we continuously update the course content as new features and concepts become available. The syllabus below will be updated over time. The first two days of the class cover the tools, features, and development process as outlined in the syllabus below. The target for the two days is a virtual machine. The optional development day is where you bring your hardware and use the techniques from the first two days to build a simple image for your hardware.
