Object-Oriented Programming.
Introduction to C# Programming
Learn the
fundamentals of computer programming with the hot new C# programming
language. You'll begin with an exploration of input/output operations,
decision making, looping, and object oriented programming principles. Then,
you'll gain hands-on experience using sequential data files, and you'll
build your very own Graphical User Interface (GUI) application. Learn to
program the right way: by using a state-of-the-art language to build
impressive and professional-looking applications on your schedule and on
your very own computer.

User Interface applications in the C# programming language. Learn how to
write applications with menus, toolbars, and files, and find out how to
interact with databases and write SQL queries.
Introduction to Database Development
A number of
powerful tools are available to help you build databases and database
applications. However, if you do not apply a systematic, structured approach
to the use of those tools, you will probably produce systems that fail to
meet user needs. Many projects bog down or are never completed for lack of a
disciplined approach to development. This course will guide you step-by-step
through all the phases of a system development project to guarantee that the
resulting product will not only work as it was designed to work, but also
that the design truly responds to user needs.
Introduction to Java
If you want to learn
Java but don't have any prior programming knowledge, you'll enjoy this
course. Explore this exciting new language in a friendly and supportive
environment. Build up your confidence with easy-to-understand examples and
plenty of skill-building exercises.
Introduction to Oracle
Learn how to use
the Oracle database management system to plan, organize, and manage your
data. This course will introduce you to the Structured Query Language (SQL),
Oracle's SQL*Plus, and other valuable tools used to develop, manage, and
reference an Oracle database. You will learn how to create an Oracle
database, build various database objects for the database, and write simple
SQL statements that access the data from the database.
Intermediate Oracle
Gain hands-on
experience with Oracle's PL/SQL programming language, with expert assistance
from an IT veteran. PL/SQL is Oracle's procedural language extension to
Structured Query Language (SQL). This course will give you the skills you
need to write powerful and flexible programs using that language. You'll
learn the building blocks and core features of PL/SQL, and you'll begin
building fully functional PL/SQL programs with procedures, packages,
debugging routines, database structures, triggers, and cursor processing.
Introduction to Perl Programming
Learn Perl, a
powerful and easy-to-use scripting language used on PCs, servers, and on the
Internet for a wide range of programming problems. Perl is as capable - and
often as fast - as C, C++, and Java, but is easier to learn and does not
require the sort of software development tools and environments required by
those languages. Perl is also more portable and supported on a greater
variety of computers than many other computing languages. Perl programming
skills are especially valuable for Web developers, software developers, and
system administrators.
Introduction to PHP and MySQL
Learn how to create an interactive Web site, allowing visitors to post and
retrieve information provided by you or your site's visitors. You'll see how
to use the PHP programming language to generate dynamic Web sites that
automatically change as your data changes. You'll also learn how to use the
popular MySQL database server with PHP to store and retrieve data over the
Web.
Intermediate PHP & MySQL
Learn how to create an interactive online store complete with an online catalog
of products, allowing customers to browse the catalog to select items, place
them in a shopping cart, and complete an order. In this six-week online course,
you'll see how to create a commercial online store using the PHP programming
language and the MySQL database server.
Python 2.5 Programming, Introduction
The Python programming language was developed with the idea that programmers
should have a way to develop code that's easy to create and understand.
While Python contains the same basic structures of other languages, it also
offers unique functionality that makes the programmer's life easier.
This course will show you how to create basic programming structures like
decisions and loops. After that, we'll move on to object-oriented techniques
with classes and exceptions. You'll also learn how to use some unique Python
data structures like tuples and dictionaries. You'll even learn how to
create graphical elements from simple squares and circles to graphical user
interface objects like buttons and labels.
By the end of the course, you'll have the foundational knowledge you need to
create a variety of Python files, whether they be short scripts, full
programs, or graphical user interfaces.
Introduction to Ruby Programming
Learn how to create an interactive Web blog that allows visitors to register and
post articles and comments. You'll see how the popular Ruby on Rails framework
environment creates much of the code for you, and how to use the Ruby
programming language to modify the code to customize your Web site. The blog
we'll create also uses the popular MySQL database server to store the blog data
that appears on the site, and it provides a search feature to allow visitors to
easily search past blog entries.
Introduction to SQL
Learn the key
concepts of Structured Query Language (SQL) and gain a solid working
knowledge of this powerful and universal database programming language.
