Java Fundamentals (for Java 8, 11 and 17)

Java 8 Java 11 Java 17

Get a solid foundation in the fundamentals of Java programming

Contains around 14.5 hours of video - including exercises this should take around 5 to 7 days to complete.

To coincide with the release of Java 17 we have completely revised and updated our Java Fundamentals course.
This version is suitable for anyone using versions 8, 11 or 17 of Java, and is tailored to both the Intellij Idea and Eclipse IDEs.
Covers the major aspects of java syntax, object oriented programming, unit testing with JUnit and working with databases.
Most of the course and learning is focused around building a real-world example application.

You do not need any previous Java knowledge or experience to take this course. We cover everything right from the start - including how to install Java and the Java Development Kit.
