This course is designed to enable you with little or no programming experience to begin to learn programming using the Java programming language. The 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.Platform independence is one of the most significant advantages that Java has over other programming languages, particularly for systems that need to work on many different platforms.Java is platform-independent at both the source and the binary level.
Who taking this course will have hands on experience learning basic object oriented concepts such as inheritance, encapsulation, and abstraction.They learn how to create and use simple Java classes containing arrays, loops, and conditional constructs.

- Developer
- Technical Administrator
- Technical Consultant
- Project Manager
- Application Developers
