Hello All,

I want to sponsor someone on IT trainings. He has mentioned web development and software development under microsoft but i am having the feeling that microsoft programs are now out of fashion instead Java,Python.PHP etc are the better options now.
Does it still make sense to get trained on microsoft software development programs today? Is there any job prospect for him after training? Someone should help me out with the explanation. Thanks

Ask in detail what the person wants to learn, like you said java nd python is used for software dev, some tech offered by microsoft is not used anymore meanwhile one of microsoft's product used for software development is trending, as powerful as java, if not more by now cos its evolving faster than any other in the market, far better than php and stronger than python in its own way so get the details

He said he wants to learn microsoft programs and he expects me to advice him on what to do. The issue is that i don't know much in that area so i don't know how to advice him. But i care because i am the one who is going to bring the money for the program so i don't want a waste. If he insists on microsoft, what should he do and what are the prospects? Whats should i tell him?

if it is programming the person wants to learn, microsoft's c# is a good to go, definitely, if he is serious and detarmined, he will achieve much with that
