Course that teaches JAVA

<p>Son is still in the job search, and as he’s perusing more and more openings, all over the country, we’re finding a lot looking for experience with JAVA.</p>

<p>Now, as part of CBH, son learned C++, Fortran, some SQL and others. He’s had Matlab in the past and more recently as part of Differential Equations.</p>

<p>Anyone out there taken a course that involves teaching JAVA? Son would like to fit that into his schedule in the coming semesters as an elective or even just an extra course so he can honestly say on his resume that he has experience in JAVA.</p>

<p>Thanks for any help!</p>

<p>if he wants to self study some courses during the summer…here is the link to MIT free online courses</p>

<p>Google can help you with this one. CS 350 - [url=&lt;a href=“http://cs.ua.edu/350/S2012/syl350.pdf]Syllabus[/url”&gt;http://cs.ua.edu/350/S2012/syl350.pdf]Syllabus[/url</a>]</p>

<p>I do think that there are pre-req’s for the 350 class, but not sure if they could be bypassed because of the CBHP experience??</p>

<p>:-)</p>

<p>^^^Yeah, but ya gotta know java there too. ;)</p>

<p>I believe they’d teach him all about said java. Especially how to over price it.</p>

<p>could probably find that class at a CC either locally or distance learning (online).</p>

<p>We’ve tried locally. None offering. Thanks for the CS 350 link. We’ll look and see if this can fit in his schedule along the way if he can’t find something online this summer.</p>

<p>Any help with finding online courses?</p>

<p>We’ll look into that MIT course.</p>

<p>Unless the course counts toward his degree, do not bother paying for it. If your son understands software development, he will be able to quickly adapt his skills to any language without needing to spend months doing it. A book and a week is all he will need to learn te language. The real trick is understanding software development and how to solve problems.</p>

<p>Casino, did you set the joke up for Malanai? It was just too perfect!! :)</p>

<p>The joke was supposed to be mine and Malanai stole it from me. He gets to be Johnny Carson and I’m stuck doing commercials for Publisher’s Clearing House.</p>

<p>^^^Lol, casino. My bad. But man, it was such low hanging fruit, just begging to be picked. :)</p>

<p>Guess I owe you another box of chocolate covered macadamia nuts.</p>

<p>^^^^^^and Here’ssssssssssssssss Johnny^^^^^^ :-)</p>

<p>No worries joh… err… Malanai. Hope to see you at a game this year. Ole Miss & auburn will be the two home games I’ll be at. The chocolate covered macadamia nuts are not necessary but they were damn good.</p>

<p>I saw this today and remembered your problem. Groupon has a deal today. For $149 you can get access to all sorts of classes. They have multiple Java classes. That may be worth it since it would be cheaper than a class at a CC.
