Corporate IT training

[dvenardos]

Does anyone have experience with the elearning/video training currently available? I need to put together a training plan for our legacy programmers to learn C# .NET. My company is not going to spring for live training and we have one programmer that is a maintenance level programmer and is going to need some quality training. There doesn't seem to be much in the way of reviews. AppDev has a lot of courses available, but it doesn't really give me the impression of quality. I am leaning toward Keystone training and they have a great price on the five user plan and have quizes and progress tracking. LearnItFirst is pretty reasonable but I am concerned because they seem to break down everything into really short segments and am concerned that it may not be too cohesive.

I will probably end up having to develop the coding standards, so any books on best practices in enterprise level .NET development would be helpful.

Our company has a deal with Skillsoft, they seem to offer a lot of Online options....have heard pretty good feedback about them.

I've heard decent things about Keystone, but don't know much about them.

Thanks.
I ended up putting together a proposal with the keystone training.
A subscription to this site:

and the .NET programming certificate from O'Reilly School of Technology.

I am also putting together a library. Should be an adequate variety and source of training.
