Visual Basic Intro

Visual Basic Intro is a programming language developed by Microsoft. It was one of the first products to provide a graphical programming environment, and a paint metaphor for developing user interfaces. Instead of worrying about syntax details, the Visual Basic programmer can add a substantial amount of code simply by dragging and dropping controls, such as buttons and dialog boxes, and then defining their appearance and behavior. Our Visual Basic course leads to 'City & Guilds' certification, which is recognised by employers in the UK and internationally.

Course Description

If you have no experience in programming, it is essential that you have done our Programming Principles course first.
A trainer will get you started with a tour of Visual Basic, before showing you how to work through the exercises to fully utilise the applications capabilities. This 'learning by doing' approach introduces you to the environment, buttons and menus of Access. Trainers will be available in the classrooms at all times if you need assistance.
