freebee VB Challenge
Following on from their highly succesful freebee
VB, Winning Systems are now offering bare course projects that
readers can pick up and attempt to complete and send into a tutor
for review. 'Bare' meaning that each project omits any supporting
courseware topics and so students have to rely on their own current
skills and knowledge.
Feedback from past 'freebee VB' students have shown
that:
(1) a high proportion are 'self-learners' but
(2) would welcome an option to enter a tutored Online course at
a more advanced level.
The idea is that you can use these projects to assess
your own proficiency levels and, if you later choose to, use this
to enrol for single 'complete', fully supported projects at a
suitable level and so avoid paying for earlier, more basic ones.
A big bonus is the free, professional feedback that 'self-learners'
don't normally have access to.
Winning Systems are continuing with the original
'freebee VB', but this will now only be available on a download
basis whilst 'Challenge' is running.
Before installing the executable below you will
have to register at the Winning Systems Site for a password. This
is done via a simple form on the Winning Systems Web site, full
details are given in the PDF file below. On the form you choose
one of the projects offered and Winning Systems will respond with
a password to enable you to open it from the cover disk. You can
enrol for only one project at a time and only those readers that
submit completed projects can have another bite at a more advanced
project. Incidentally, novices will continue to have the option
of enrolling for 'freebee VB Project 1' as before.

IMPORTANT:
Once you have your password you must follow the next installation
step.
When you install the freebee VB program the first window
you will see is this one. Please leave the default
path as C:\ (without a further folder name).
This will automatically unzip
to the directory C:\Winsys
