Java SE: JDBC, Reflections, and Threading, Part 14 of 18

Course description

Java was introduced many years ago not for the internet but has since expanded to be an industry standard for web pages. This course goes beyond the introduction to the advanced Java programming language and how to develop Java applications using Eclipse. You will learn how to use JavaBeans, JDBC, Internationalization, Reflection, Threads and Networking.

Each LearnNowOnline training course is made up of Modules (typically an hour in length). Within each module there are Topics (typically 15-30 minutes each) and Subtopics (typically 2-5 minutes each). There is a Post Exam for each Module that must be passed with a score of 70% or higher to successfully and fully complete the course.
