Course Description
The course starts from scratch, but if you haven’t programmed in Java for a while, or would like to update your skills to Java SE 9, then this course has something for you too. During the course, we use IntelliJ IDEA as our development environment, however we also learn how to do away with an IDE and go behind the scenes to compile and run code manually. If you have previous experience using another IDE such as NetBeans, Eclipse or BlueJ - you are more than welcome to use any of those instead.

This study experience doesn’t just train you in Java - it gives you an education on the core concepts of programming and encourages you to develop your personal research and development skills to become a well rounded IT professional, regardless of technology used.

The course consists of 108 beautifully crafted lessons, each explaining a core programming concept and how this concept is implemented in Java. For each lesson, you get both a theoretical and practical explanation, and are provided with all slides and code examples used. Furthermore, the course also challenges you with interesting homework assignments as well as ‘Test Your Mettle’ bonus sections, to encourage personal research skills and feature discovery.

As an enrolled student, you will have access to all course material, a personal e-mail contact with your instructor as well as a discussion area. This means you will be able to carry out homework, Test Your Mettle challenges and even additional exercises, and have your questions answered directly by your instructor - too! Your success is our obsession.

We hope to join you on your exciting learning journey in the world of Java!
