Plugin Developer Training

Dynamics Plugin Developer Training is for anyone looking for a way to start developing plugins for Dynamics 365. This is a practical course that is delivered online – there will be quite a bit of “theory”, but, also, practice there. Do not expect a reference guide that will give you answers to all your questions – there are lots of other online resources you can use for that. Instead, the idea is to quickly get you from the point where you are only starting to explore plugin development to the point where you have developed a few plugins, tried a few things, and are ready to start building your skills on top of that experience.
