Schedule our instructor led technology-based training at your convenience and never miss another lecture or fall behind. You are in complete control. We invited the best Java expert in the industry to help us develop the ultimate training program which includes everything you will need to fully understand Java for non-Object Oriented Developers.

This course uses a combination of instructor lectures, computer demonstrations and interactive hands-on lab simulations to illustrate the major parts of the course.

Topics discussed include; comparing the .NET framework to the J2EE environment, comparing the common language runtime (CLR) with the J2EE runtime. We will discuss the .NET framework class library structure and compare it to the J2EE class library structure. We will then look at some of the application development capabilities, ADO.NET and how it compares to the JDBC API access, messaging components and message based processing, static and dynamic pages using ASP.NET and compare it to Java Server Pages. We will then move on to learning more about the java environment and discussing the Eclipse IDE. We will spend time defining & declaring variables, talking about decision logic & looping, illustrating class definitions and java arrays. We will define inheritance, talk about the eclipse debugger, exception handling, database concepts, thread management, and wrap things up with a discussion on files and streams.

The Expert Trainers:

Michael Deskis
- Mr. Deskis has twenty years of exposure in the design, construction and implementation of mainframe and client/server application systems. His experience ranges from programming in a variety of languages (COBOL, Assembler, C and Java) through database design and into data warehousing. The breadth of his exposure ranges from large-scale mainframe operations to smaller client/server systems allowing him to articulate solutions to many types of business scenarios and understand the implications of system migrations.

During his most recent tenures he has been worked closely with IBM utilizing their Visual Warehouse product to migrate legacy systems to smaller more user-responsive enterprise data warehouses with Java-enabled front-ends. He is one of a select few individuals authorized by IBM to teach their Visual Warehouse Business Intelligence and VisualAge for Java® curriculum in North American. In 1998, IBM ranked their entire worldwide instructor/developmental staff based upon student evaluation forms and Mr. Deskis was ranked in the top 3% of all global instructors used by IBM.
