We have just completed our
first round of Level 1 courses for Umbraco 5, on 3 continents,
certifying more than 50 Level 1 developers in just 2 days. Within
the next 2 days, the same thing will have happened with a batch of
Level 2 developers, getting the total number of new V5
certifications to over 100.
By the end of March (27th-28th) we have a
special round of courses, taking place in Aarhus and
Copenhagen, Denmark, exclusively for developers who
already know and love Umbraco 4, but want to get a quick
introduction to how you take the key concepts of Umbraco 4, and
transition that over to Umbraco 5.
It's a 2 day course, which will upgrade a developers Level 1 and
Level 2 certifications to Umbraco 5, in half the time (and half the
cost), compared to a normal certification.
So the first day we will cover the material from Level 1,
pointing out where Umbraco 5 is different, and where there has been
enhanced functionality. This is especially around templating,
razor, document types and macros.
On the second day, we will dive into the many new APIs you have
for working with documents, media and members and explore how
common code tasks from V4 is now done in V5. This will be based on
version 5.1 which is due to be released in March as well. So this
course will cover the very latest improvements in Umbraco 5.

Schedule
There are very limited seating on these
courses, and for now, these are the only confirmed courses that
will cover a Umbraco 4 to Umbraco 5 transition, so book a seat
while you can.
The upgrade course assumes that attendees have plenty of
experience with Umbraco 4, and have a Level 2 certification
already.
