Getting Started with Java

Everything you need to know about programming in Java

Welcome to Getting Started with Java. This course assumes no prior java experience so prior Java so it will take you from zero to hero! This course is designed to help you master the most in-demand and critical components for becoming a core Java developer. This course is is essential if you're going for a job interview or have a Java Project that needs your best performance.

The topics covered include Object Orientation which I think is not stressed enough in other Java courses so I've got special focus on that throughout the lectures. You'll get plenty of practice writing classes and interfaces as well as countless methods with loops and if else statements, exception handling and file processing as well as how to debug software using Eclipse.

This course is part one of two of the Java curriculum, so make sure to take the Master Practical Java Development course once you're finished with this course.

★★★★★ Here’s reviews from real students that took this course ★★★★★

★★★★★ Instructions are very clear and easy to follow. I know nothing about java and so far I’m keeping up just fine.

★★★★★ The explanation of each concept is done very well. This is a great course for beginners.

★★★★★ This course is awesome! The teacher is very thorough with his explanations of the theory and application. I'm really enjoying it!

★★★★★ I am taking my second semester of Java programming at university. I signed up for this course to augment my university studies. I learn more from this one course with a better understanding of programming principles than I have learned at university.The university gives me college credit; this course will get me a job!

★★★★★ I'm taking a class about object-oriented programming in relation to Java. However, the reading material uses quite a bit of technical lengthy jargon that I simply get confused. This class has been extremely helpful in presenting concepts in a straightforward and simple way. I can understand what he's explaining and it makes sense. This is a fantastic course and I'd recommend it to anyone who is feeling discouraged about learning about object-oriented programming.

★★★★★ Congratulations – the instructor has turned complicated topics into easy interactive components. High praises to the instructor are in order. The instructor was very knowledgeable, worked at a good pace, and most importantly, was very good at communicating.
