ATC-J8M - J8M - Java 8 With Maven

Overview

Duration: 5.0 days

Intensive and hands-on, the course emphasizes becoming productive quickly as a Java application developer. This course quickly covers the Java language syntax and then moves into the object-oriented features of the language. As a participant you will be able to create basic applications using the Java 8 programming language.

The participants will also be able to describe object-oriented concepts, object-oriented programming (OOP) concepts, and Java platforms and technologies. This course will use Eclipse as an IDE.

Objectives

Participants will learn how to:

• Write, compile and execute Java programs 
• Build robust applications using Java’s object-oriented features 
• Create robust applications using Java class libraries
