Java Training : Essentials of Java Programming

This hands-on course teaches programmers the essentials of object programming in Java. The topics covered here are essential to any further work in Java, whether in Swing, network programming, servlets and JSPs, JMS or Enterprise JavaBeans.

Java Training Prerequisites

Initial experience with Java - having edited and compiled some Java code - is required. An understanding of the Java language through experience with Java or C++ is also essential.

Java Training Course duration

3 Days

Java Training Learning Objectives

After completing this course a student should:

Be able to create and use objects in Java, employing encapsulation, inheritance and polymorphism.
Understand the role of interfaces in a design and know how to use them.
Be familiar with these essential low-level programming mechanisms: collections, exceptions and threads.
