Hear Directly From Students

We can talk about our program... but you'll get a much better sense of the program (and the benefits it provides) by hearing directly from former students.  

Curriculum - What You Will Learn

This 680 hour course is taught live M-F from 8:30 am to 6:00 pm (MT) with a an hour break for lunch. Teaching assistants are available M-F until 7pm and on Saturday from 10 am to 2 pm.

We start with the principles of Java, learning object-oriented programming, core Java libraries, unit testing, and Git, as you prepare to take the Oracle Certified Associate – Java Programmer exam.


You expand your Java knowledge with topics like Spring, Spring MVC, creating MVC (Model-View-Controller) web applications on the server.


The program culminates with web application technologies.  The goal is to create advanced web applications using JavaScript libraries and Angular. You will also gain experience deploying your web content to a web server and navigating the server file system from the command line.

Java Programming

Create Java applications using object-oriented features such as encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism.


Java SDK

Reuse the various classes in the Java libraries rather than reinvent the wheel for topics such as data structures and file input/output.


Development Tools

Use Eclipse IDE (Integrated Development Environment), Git, and Github.


Pair Programming

Apply Agile development methods including Pair Programming.

A Typical Day...

The typical day consists of short lectures, lots of hands-on coding, pair programming and individual projects, and breaks to stay fresh.  Throughout the program you will have access to supported study sessions, guest speakers, and other school-hosted activities.
