Examples of exercises include debugging tasks where you learn to use the debugger, minor form tasks to introduce you to the designer, creating a report, viewing metadata, and various other practical, fast, and simple hands-on exercises too quickly become familiar with using the tools for base Dynamics 365 development. We are confident that the combination of guided hands-on experience along with the scheduled lab access will make this course a big time-saver for those just beginning their journey in Dynamics 365 development.
This is a fundamentals course. The course is intended to be used as one of two courses designed to quickly bring beginners up to speed on the fundamentals of x++. Absolute beginners to Dynamics 365 development and people who are experienced with Dynamics AX 2012 development looking for a quick primer on the new development environment are the target audience.

Freelances as hands-on Technical Lead with very advanced development scenarios for Day Job
Brandon Ahmad is a Dynamics 365 Technical Solutions
Architect and CEO of Instructor Brandon.
In his years of experience working with different Microsoft Technologies such as
Dynamics 365, Power BI and Power Apps,
he has been able to consult over 60 implementations across the globe. Being
solution-oriented and implementing advanced scenarios,
he has dedicated his time to creating training courses for programmers and
developers alike; those interested mainly in learning Microsoft Technologies.
As an Instructor, he strongly believes in being able to master developmental skills;
as long as one achieves the right set of training and guidance.
Providing students with several enhanced Microsoft training courses that focus on
providing a hands-on learning experience, Ahmad’s biggest secret to teaching lies in
his ability to nurture those who take his courses.
His best reward (in his own words) is “hearing that my students saved time and
mastered Microsoft Technology skills, knowing that my courses played a vital part in
that success.”
This is a good introduction to Dynamics 365 and X++. The videos are really well explained.
