Basic Java 11 and OO Programming for Developers New to OO (TT2120-J11)

5 Days

30 CPD hours

This is a basic-level programming course designed for attendees with prior development experience in another language, such as COBOL, 4GL, Mainframe or other non-object oriented languages. This course is not geared for non-developers.

This 'skills-centric' course is about 50% hands-on lab and 50% lecture, designed to train attendees in core OO coding and Java development skills, coupling the most current, effective techniques with the soundest industry practices. Our engaging instructors and mentors are highly experienced practitioners who bring years of current 'on-the-job' experience into every classroom.
Working within in a hands-on learning environment, guided by our expert team, attendees will learn to:
Understand what OO programming is and what the advantages of OO are in today's world
Work with objects, classes, and OO implementations
Understand the basic concepts of OO such as encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, and abstraction
Understand not only the fundamentals of the Java language, but also its importance, uses, strengths and weaknesses
Understand the basics of the Java language and how it relates to OO programming and the Object Model
Work with the Modular system (Project Jigsaw)
Understand and use classes, inheritance and polymorphism
Understand and use collections, generics, autoboxing, and enumerations
Process large amount of data using Lambda expressions and the Stream API
Abstract, static and private methods in interfaces
Take advantage of the Java tooling that is available with the programming environment being used in the class
Java 11 features covered: Using the Local Variable Type in Lambda expressions; Updates made to the String API

This course provides hands-on Java 11 training for developers who have little or no prior working knowledge of object-oriented programming languages such as C, COBOL, and 4GL. You will learn the best practices for writing great object-oriented programs in Java 11, using sound development techniques, new improved features for better performance, and new capabilities for addressing rapid application development. Special emphasis is placed on object oriented concepts and best practices.
