Course Overview
Java brings an Object-Oriented approach to programming, which allows even the newest Java developers to start modelling the world around them in code, and to start coding like a developer.
This course provides an overview of the software development process in addition to introducing important programming constructs and methodologies. As this is an introductory course, no pre-requisite qualifications are necessary, but any experience in Computing and particularly in Programming is advantageous.
This course is designed to meet the needs of candidates who are currently working in related fields and want to up-skill or for those who wish to pursue entry-level roles in the ICT sector. This course is also ideal for those who wish to pursue further study in Computer Science.
