Hi Julie,
Congratulations!, These courses will help the developers a lot.
Could you tell me Julie, Is it easy to convert NetTiers Validation classes to Entity Framework Validation classes? , because I needed this in my business layer and I want to consider one way "Self-Tracking or DbContext Model" , What's your recommendation for me?.

@khaled
I'm sorry but I really don't know. I haven't ever used NetTiers.
