Java SE 21 Programming Training in Brisbane

This comprehensive course covers essential and advanced concepts in Java programming, using Java SE 21. It is designed to build a solid foundation in Java fundamentals, object-oriented programming, data handling, multithreading, and cloud-based Java applications. Through interactive lectures, hands-on labs, and exercises, participants will master the skills necessary to develop, maintain, and deploy Java applications effectively.

This is an accelerated course aimed at experienced programmers. Learners who are new to programming should consider sitting a combination of OCJSE21PI 'Java SE 21: Programming I' and OCJSE21PII 'Java SE 21: Programming II' instead.

It is recommended that you have previously studied programming languages, or have an existing knowledge of Java Programming.

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

• Understand and implement Java fundamentals and syntax.
• Apply object-oriented principles using Java.
• Develop, debug, and maintain Java applications.
• Handle data with Java APIs, including dates, times, and text.
• Work with multithreading, concurrency, and asynchronous processing.
• Utilise Java for database connectivity and security applications.
• Implement and deploy Java applications in cloud environments.
