<p>During the last couple of months I’ve been helping the Microsoft DPE team (namely <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/vbertocci">Vittorio</a> and <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/donovanf">Donovan</a>) building the <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&amp;FamilyID=c3e315fa-94e2-4028-99cb-904369f177c0">Identity Development Training Kit</a>. It’s been great to work with such knowledgeable guys like them and with one of the best frameworks I’ve ever developed with: Microsoft Geneva Framework. <a href="http://blogs.southworks.net/mwoloski/files/2009/05/image.png"><img style="margin: 0px 0px 0px 25px" border="0" alt="Identity Training Kit" align="right" src="http://blogs.southworks.net/mwoloski/files/2009/05/image-thumb.png" width="338" height="258" /></a></p>  <p>The training kit covers a lot of interesting scenarios related to claim-based identity. Here is the shortcut list (if you want a full explanation of each one, read <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/vbertocci/archive/2009/05/15/more-details-about-the-identity-developer-training-kit.aspx">Vittorio’s post</a>)</p>  <ul>   <li>Lab: Web Sites and Identity:      <ul>       <li>Exercise 1: Enabling claims based access for an ASP.NET Web Application by generating a local STS </li>        <li>Exercise 2: Customizing the Credentials Accepted by a Local STS </li>        <li>Exercise 3: Accepting Tokens from a Geneva Server STS </li>        <li>Exercise 4: Accepting Tokens from Live ID </li>        <li>Exercise 5: Accepting Tokens from .NET Access Control Service </li>        <li>Exercise 6: Invoking a WCF Service on the Backend via Delegated Access </li>     </ul>   </li>    <li>Lab: Enhancing an ASP.NET Membership Provider Website with Identity Provider Capabilities </li>    <li>Lab: Web Services and Identity      <ul>       <li>Exercise 1: Using Geneva Framework for Handling Authentication and Authorization in a WCF Service </li>        <li>Exercise 2: Accepting Tokens from a Geneva Server STS </li>        <li>Exercise 3: Accepting Tokens from .NET Access Control Service </li>        <li>Exercise 4: Invoking a WCF Service on the Backend via Delegated Access </li>     </ul>   </li> </ul>  <p>We made sure that all of the exercises followed the best practices of developing with Geneva Framework. Building this training kit was a big effort and I would like to mention the great team that helped creating this:&#160; <a href="http://blogs.southworks.net/aneisen">Ariel “lutz” Neisen</a>, <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/jcisneros">Jonathan “passive” Cisneros</a>, <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/esculli">Ezequiel “checklist” Sculli</a> and <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/siacomuzzi">Sebastian “pattern” Iacomuzzi</a></p>  <p>I invite you to take a look at the <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&amp;FamilyID=c3e315fa-94e2-4028-99cb-904369f177c0">training kit</a> and open your mind with the new possibilities the Geneva Framework brings into the table. </p>
