The demand for skilled web developers is growing, and this Professional Certificate equips you with the in-demand skills to build modern applications using Microsoft’s ASP.NET Core framework. No prior experience with ASP.NET is required to get started.

Developed by industry experts, you’ll learn to create robust web applications with ASP.NET Core, implement data management with Entity Framework Core, and secure your applications with authentication and authorization. You’ll also gain hands-on experience with Blazor, minimal APIs, middleware, and client-side integration using JavaScript, React, and CSS frameworks.

Perfect for learners pursuing opportunities in software development, cloud computing, or full-stack web development, this program provides essential skills for professional growth. You’ll practice building and deploying real-world applications, including a personal portfolio site, task management API, and secure e-commerce platform.

By the end of the program, you’ll be able to:

• Develop interactive web applications with ASP.NET Core and Blazor

• Implement secure data access and management with Entity Framework Core

• Apply authentication, authorization, and web security best practices

• Deploy applications to Azure and configure CI/CD pipelines

You’ll finish with multiple portfolio-ready projects and a Professional Certificate that demonstrates your ability to design, secure, and deploy modern ASP.NET Core applications.

Applied Learning Project

Throughout the program, you’ll complete three applied projects that mirror real-world development scenarios. In your first project, you’ll build a personal portfolio website using ASP.NET Core and Blazor—showcasing your skills and providing a professional web presence to share with employers. Next, you’ll design and implement a lightweight task management API that demonstrates your ability to work with data models, minimal APIs, middleware, and validation. Finally, you’ll create a secure e-commerce platform, integrating authentication, authorization, and security best practices while deploying to Azure with a CI/CD pipeline.

Each project highlights critical ASP.NET Core concepts, from interactive UIs and data management to application security and cloud deployment. By the end, you’ll have a portfolio of deployed applications that not only demonstrate your technical expertise but also give you concrete examples to showcase in job interviews.
