Some non-SharePoint topics are also covered that are heavily leveraged within SharePoint such as OData, Office 365, OAuth, JavaScript, JavaScript templates and Windows Azure so those students with little to no experience in these areas will get an adequate ramp-up to be productive in SharePoint 2013.
Throughout the course students will not only learn how to create robust project and solutions using the tools included in Visual Studio 2012 but they will also learn best practices about what and when you should and should not do.
