Oracle - OCA Java SE 8 Programmer

On this accelerated 3-day OCA Java SE 8 programming course, you'll be introduced to object orientated programming using the Java language.

Using our unique Lecture | Lab | Review technique, your expert instructor will guide you through creating command-line Java applications and creating conditional statements and loops. This technique, which combines both theoretical and practical tasks, will accelerate your learning as well as provide you with the hands-on experience you'll need to apply your skills to the real-world. You'll also learn how to:

• Apply Object-Oriented concepts such as Encapsulation, Inheritance and Polymorphism
• Use java types
• Manipulate Arrays and Collections
• Handle Exceptions
• Take advantage of new Java SE 8 features, such as Lambda expressions and Date/Time API

On this course, you will prepare for the Oracle Certified Associate Java SE 8 Programmer I (1Z0-808) exam, covered by your Certification Guarantee.

Achieving this certification is a prerequisite for attempting the Oracle Certified Professional Java SE 8 Programmer II. Save hundreds by combining both the OCA Java SE 8 Programmer and OCP Java SE 8 Programmer courses on the accelerated 7-day combined Oracle OCA and OCP Java SE 8 Programmer Certification course.

If you're a system administrator, project, web developer, program or technical manager looking to improve your programming skills, this course is ideal for you.
