Java for ColdFusion Programmers
Java is the dominant programming language, but for many ColdFusion programmers, the idea of dealing with a new syntax plus the very different way of thinking needed for OO is intimidating. Learning the Java syntax isn't enough; you need to learn how to model applications using the OO paradigm. This class will help you use your existing ColdFusion knowledge to attain a solid foundation of both OO and the Java language.
The class is taught by Hal Helms and Sun-certified Java guru, Ben Edwards. Students spend the last two days working in smaller teams to produce an object model and writing the code to implement a project. This affords them the opportunity to experience real-world problems and to receive mentoring and assistance from Hal and Ben.

The final 1-1/2 days of the class provide the student with a chance to apply what they have learned. A customer requirement is given to the student. The student works as part of a small team to arrive at an OO design for the application. Once the design is approved, the student teams write the code to implement the application. During this practicum, Hal and Ben act as mentors, checking on the progress of the teams, offering suggestions, and asking questions. Students tell us that this is the most valuable aspect of the class, bringing together all that they've learned into a coherent whole.
Next class: Mar 1-5, Las Vegas, NV
