Course Content

This highly acclaimed Hands-On Java programming training course provides delegates who prefer a fast track learning route with intensive practical tuition using Sun’s Java Development Kit (JDK).

The topics covered will help prepare delegates for certification tests and should prove invaluable for those planning to build commercial Java applets and applications.

Available as a public or closed course at our London training centre, or can be tailored to your team's requirements and delivered onsite as a bespoke, customised training course. The course contains several Java tutorials based on real-world scenarios.

This course has been developed for real-world, commercial scenarios by our expert instructors. See below for detailed syllabus.

Hands-on Exercises

The completed exercises and solutions provide useful skeletons which can be used as a basis for the development of purpose built applications, including:
1. Code for database access
2. Code for a network client and server
3. Code for a graphical text editor

What you will learn

1. An understanding of the Java environment design. Delegates will be in a good position to start to learn about Java Enterprise.
2. A good grasp of the basic syntax of the language, which is essential for the effective use of Java.
3. Experience in the use of object oriented technology.
4. The essential features of the Swing packages and the Java event model used to process user interaction.
5. An understanding of how to use the JDBC to open a database connection, make and process queries.
6. An awareness of the basic classes needed for thread and networking programming.
