Duration

4 days

Overview

Intensive and hands-on, the course emphasizes becoming productive quickly as a Java application developer. This course quickly covers the Java language syntax and then moves into the object-oriented features of the language. As a participant you will be able to create basic applications using the Java 8 programming language.

The participants will also be able to describe object-oriented concepts, object-oriented programming (OOP) concepts, and Java platforms and technologies. This course will use Eclipse as an IDE.

Target Participants

This course is meant for programmers who wish to move to object-oriented programming using Java. This course is designed for participants who are looking for an entry into an application development or a software project management career using Java technologies.

Program Prerequisites

The course assumes knowledge of programming.

Course Objectives

Participants will learn how to

  • Write, compile and execute Java programs
  • Build robust applications using Java’s object-oriented features
  • Create robust applications using Java class libraries

Mode of Delivery

Every participant will be provided with course notes and are required to bring in their own laptops for hands-on exercise and practice sessions.
