    Frequently Asked Questions about Visual Basic

    Visual Basic is the programming language and development environment that Microsoft created in 1991 to augment its original BASIC programming language for the Windows operating system. The launch of Visual Basic was an extraordinary step for computer programming. Within Visual Basic is a graphical user interface GUI. This innovation launched a new wave of drag and drop programming, which immensely helped developers to create software products, instead of only writing code manually.

    Its entrance into the software scene helped to lead developers into designing software applications more efficiently and simply for PC-based software and internet applications. As of 2020, Microsoft was still supporting some of the application types to help developers migrate code, but it's no longer evolving Visual Basic as a language.‎

    It's important to learn Visual Basic because learning how to write code using it can help you think logically to solve problems. Plus, its basic precepts are still used today in some Microsoft and PC-based software applications, even though it's a legacy programming language.

    Programs created with Visual Basic can be configured to run on Windows, within Microsoft's Office applications, on web apps, and on mobile devices. More importantly, Visual Basic is usually available online to help beginning developers to use as a starter software application.‎

    Typical careers that use Visual Basic include software engineers, application developers, and systems developers who work for organizations that use legacy software like healthcare organizations and hospitals. Visual Basic is still used by developers as it's easy to learn and put into place for small and medium-sized businesses. You can put your understanding of Visual basic fundamentals to work right away as a software developer. However, as software development continues to evolve with the advent of cloud applications and machine learning, Visual Basic is less popular today with most programmers, who have moved onto languages like Python, SQL, and Java.‎

    When you take online courses about Visual Basic, you can gain a fundamental understanding of this programming language, and how to write simple code in software applications. Taking online courses about Visual Basic can also introduce you to the more recent versions of the software, like Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), which helps new developers learn how to code for applications and spreadsheet use. Much of that knowledge is relevant for programming development that's still in use today.‎

    Online Visual Basic courses offer a convenient and flexible way to enhance your knowledge or learn new Visual Basic skills. Choose from a wide range of Visual Basic courses offered by top universities and industry leaders tailored to various skill levels.‎

    When looking to enhance your workforce's skills in Visual Basic, it's crucial to select a course that aligns with their current abilities and learning objectives. Our Skills Dashboard is an invaluable tool for identifying skill gaps and choosing the most appropriate course for effective upskilling.
