Just to clarify upfront: Any topic can be explored in depth at your request. Your needs come first. You decide what your team needs. We create the concept. If your team just wants an overview, then you can select a wide range of topics. However, it will likely be challenging for the team to implement what they have learned in practice afterwards.
So, if you want to work seriously and professionally with Java, it's better, based on our experience, to select fewer topics which we then discuss in depth during the training and conduct a sufficient number of practical workshops. Here, indeed, "less is more". In a consultation, we can best jointly identify which topics will be most beneficial for your team and your projects.
We don't preach theory, we solve problems! Get the maximum knowledge for your team. Compile the topics according to your previous knowledge and needs, depending on the project. Because individual learning brings the desired success!
These topics cover the language elements, concepts and core of the object-oriented programming language Java in a practical and lively way. Anyone who wants to work with Java must master the content of these modules, whether creating simple Java programs consisting of multiple classes or understanding complex programs.
The Java Basics module includes the following focus areas:
With the basic modules, you can write simple programs consisting of several classes in Java. But for large projects and demanding requirements, you need much more know-how about advanced topics and best practices.
The Java Advanced module includes the following focus areas:
By far the most important innovation among the Java versions was Java 8 with the introduction of Lambda Expressions, Functional Interfaces and Streams. For many software developers it is still syntax and topics that need getting used to.
Nevertheless, once you understand these concepts deeply and well, you don't want to miss them! This is because these new features massively simplify many routine tasks and allow for a less error-prone and more efficient declarative style, rather than the traditionally used imperative style. Declarative style focuses on the "what-question" instead of the "how-question". The what-question expresses what a method should do, such as filtering data. The "how-question" explains the steps that are necessary to complete the task, e.g. going through all the data, filtering according to certain criteria, etc. In imperative style, the software developer has to take care of the two questions (what and how) and therefore write a lot of code. In declarative style, the software developer only cares about the "what should the method do" question and lets the Java API take care of the "how question". This proves to be very powerful when processing data with Lambda Expression and Streams and saves a lot of time.
The module system as of Java 9 allows large projects to be organized into multiple modules that are cleanly separated from each other. No project may have more cycles in its software architecture. A cycle results, for example, when a module A refers to B, module B refers to C, and then module C refers to A again. Such cycles arise quickly: when new requirements come in, deadlines and delivery dates are very short, then even experienced software developers help themselves out of time pressure and convenience with cross references between different modules in order to be able to access methods or data more quickly. As soon as everything works correctly, this is not very tragic. But as soon as an error (bug) occurs, it is incredibly difficult to locate the source, if A depends on B, B on C and C again on A. It can take days and weeks to correctly identify the source of such errors and to correct the bug. Java 9 tries to protect us from exactly this by having the module system prohibit such cycles from the start! These are just a few examples of the advantages of Java 8 and 9. In our opinion, anyone who wants to program seriously and effectively with Java should master the new features of Java 8 and 9.
The Functional Programming with Java 8-11 module includes the following focus areas:
(XX stands for the latest version: currently 18)
The Java programming language is constantly evolving. More precisely, Oracle now releases a new Java version every 6 months and a new major version every 3 years. Some innovations are "only" nice and "nice to have", so that the software developers can accomplish some tasks without detour and more directly than before, other changes are quite interesting and important and contribute to the fact that one can realize the same task with e.g. Java 19 clearly better and faster than with Java 10. From this module you can select the following innovation to Java 19:
The News from Java 09 to Java XX module includes the following focus areas:
The topics in this module are aimed at Java programmers who want to write high quality, good code. If you want all your Java developers to reach a certain standard of quality and write above average code, then the topics here are the right ones! Because here we don't deal with language elements or concepts but with the question: how can I write better Java code? Code that has as few errors as possible, is easy to understand, change and extend. How can I produce code that other team members can easily test, extend and build upon? Because a team should never be dependent on a few people. This is not good for the team or for the people involved. Because if a team is dependent on a few people because they are the only ones who know about complex code segments, then the team can't move forward if those people are absent due to illness or vacation! On the other hand, even on their well-deserved vacation, these experienced people have to be available all the time because they are the only ones who know code very well! This is a typical situation, which is not optimal for both sides.
The topics from this module try to solve exactly this problem by having all team members write Clean Code and provide it with Clean Unit Test, so that the produced new code is quickly understandable for all and also new team members, shortens the learning curve and enables productive collaboration.
This module covers Clean Code rules, Clean Unit Test rules, the most important object-oriented concepts and refactoring patterns in a practical and optimized way, so that your Java development team can immediately apply what they have learned in this module to ongoing projects, thereby permanently improving code quality and productivity.
The topics in this module further deepen Java best practice techniques and also address aspects for which there is no time in a typical Java basic or advanced course.
The Clean Code and Clean Unit Test in Java module includes the following focus areas:
As soon as a developer works in only one class, the Clean Code and unit test rules are often sufficient, in order to write on this level above average good Java code. However, as soon as a Java developer writes more than one class, which is often the case, the question comes to the fore: how do I organize my classes? In which relations do they stand to each other? Which dependencies and interfaces are there between them? The correct class structure is decisive and crucial for the quality of the entire code. Thus, it becomes even more important that your Java team is well versed in modern object-oriented concepts and software architecture patterns, called design patterns. Often, you can combine several proven design patterns and/or proven object-oriented concepts to implement a flexible and good software architecture. These modules teach how your Java development team can use a variety of techniques and patterns to better structure Java programs. Both the fundamentals of object orientation, which are independent of any particular programming language, and possible implementations in Java are discussed here.
The Object orientation, design and architecture in Java module includes the following focus areas:
Every programmer likes to work on modern, well-structured code that is thoroughly documented and tested. Unfortunately, the practice often looks different. If your team has to maintain a codebase characterized by structural issues, insufficient documentation, and no or poor testing, then unfortunately we can't promise you that any of our courses will solve the problem overnight. But in these modules, your team will learn many proven techniques that they can use step by step to get their code into a shape that makes it fun to work with again.
The Working with Legacy Code in Java module includes the following focus areas:
These modules cover techniques that help make teamwork more productive and improve the quality of the resulting software.
The Working effectively as a team module includes the following focus areas:
These examples illustrate how some courses can be structured for typical customer requirements.
You are starting a Java project, but some of the team members have knowledge of C++ or C#, but not Java. To get these team members to a level where they could productively work on the code base, a course with the following modules would be appropriate:
You are a team of experienced developers for whom neither the Java programming language itself nor the basics of object orientation are new territory. But you want to better structure the large software project you are currently working on and prepare it for future requirements. Then the following modules might be right for you:

4-Week Training Program
A new and innovative learning concept. You can find more information about the 4-Week Training Programm here.
Of course, as a participant in a Java course, you will receive a certificate. The prerequisite for this is full participation in all course units and programming tasks, and the successful programming of a small final project. However, after an intensive Java course, this will certainly bring you more joy than stress.
We thank our customers for their trust.
