Knowledge and skill to program and run advanced Java Applications (Certificate)

Montreal College of Management and Technology
Montreal, Quebec, Canada

Course Format: Classroom | E-learning | Virtual Class | Online | On-site | Blended | Self-paced

Course Description:

'' The Java Programming Language course teaches delegates the syntax of the Java programming language; object-oriented programming with the Java programming language; creating graphical user interfaces (GUI), exception handling, file input/output (I/O), threads and networking. Programmers familiar with object-oriented concepts can learn how to develop applications and applets with the Java programming language. The course uses the Java 2 Software Development Kit (SDK).

Who can benefit?

Delegates with a programming background who are interested in adding the Java programming language to their list of skills.
Delegates who are preparing for the Java Technology Sun Certified Programmer Certification exam.

Skills Gained?

Create sophisticated Java applications that leverage the object-oriented features of the Java language, such as inheritance and polymorphism.
Use the file I/O class libraries to read and write to and from data and text files.
Create and use Java GUI components: panels, buttons, labels, text fields and text areas etc
Create standalone applications, and use the Frame and Menu classes to add a GUI to applications in the Java programming language.
Create basic Java applets and launch them from a Web Browser.
Create multithreaded programs and use monitors and shared objects to communicate among threads.
Create a simple Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) server and client that communicate through sockets.
