Course value

Why this course

Enterprise Java work requires more than language syntax; learners must connect Spring Boot, persistence, APIs, frontend integration, testing, security, containers, and CI/CD.

The curriculum progresses from Java Foundations and Developer Tooling to Containers, CI/CD and Java Full-Stack Capstone, with guided labs, assessments, and two portfolio projects: Enterprise Java Business Application and Java Microservice Starter Platform.
