Training for Non-IT Graduates
It’s ambitious, but at the start of September we will be taking a group of non-IT graduates on a 3 week journey into the wonderful world of programming and software engineering. Starting from first principals, our goal is to instil the know-how and passion for creating great software and working applications.
The course will cover everything from programming fundamentals (with Java), testing, tools, web application development, databases (and SQL), building, configuration management (and SVN), use-casing, prototyping, and the software lifecycle. Delegates will also get a chance to create a mini-application from the ground up, using their newly acquired knowledge, with the instructor acting as the customer.
This is one of a number of induction courses that we have supplied to Liberty IT over the years, and thankfully they continue to be extremely pleased with the value and quality of our training. But there is no doubting the ambitiousness of this course - taking a group of newbies and converting them into solid engineers over 3 intensive weeks is a huge challenge, but a challenge that we are extremely excited about!
