Java Training Cape Town, South Africa

Just a hobby or looking to become a professional computer programmer? 2KO International is based in Cape Town South Africa and runs Java courses for people interested in learning Java and taking Java certification exams.

 

Java programming from Sun Microsystems pushes the envelope with powerful features and teaches you the skills needed to make the internet really work!

Objectives for this Java Course
Upon completion of this course, students should be able to:
Demonstrate knowledge of Java technology, the Java programming language, and the product life cycle
Use various Java programming language constructs to create several Java technology applications
Use decision and looping constructs and methods to dictate program flow
Implement intermediate Java technology programming and object-oriented (OO) concepts in Java technology programs

Overview of the Java Course
The Fundamentals of the Java Programming Language course provides students who have little or no programming experience with the basics of programming using the Java programming language. This course teaches the significance of object-oriented programming, the keywords
and constructs of the Java programming language, and the steps required to create simple Java technology programs. A new teaching tool developed by Sun Services (patent pending) is used throughout the course to help students understand the syntax and semantics of the language. Students taking this course receive a solid basis in
the Java programming language upon which to base continued work and training.

Who can benefit
Students who can benefit from this course are individuals who have basic mathematical, logical, and analytical problem-solving skills and who want to begin learning the Java programming language. These students include technical writers, web developers, technical managers, and individuals with a technical, non-programming background, such as system administrators. This course is also appropriate for novice programmers and for those programmers who prefer to start learning the Java programming language at an introductory level. However, prior to attending this course, individuals are encouraged to have had some programming experience, whether with a scripting language, such as Perl, or a third-generation language, such as Basic or C.

Prerequisites
To succeed fully in this course, students should be able to:
Create and edit text files using a text editor
Use a World Wide Web (WWW) browser
Solve logic problems
Describe the concept of a variable
Execute commands using a command-line interface
