Having a computer programming certification is the key to advancing a career in IT, as well as a pre-requisite for most computer programming jobs. However, even those who have not followed a College or University grade computer programming course can still profit from the recent boom in the computer programming job market by taking computer programming classes, either online or offline. The course aims to teach students basic programming concepts, and to give students practical programming experience by solving small-scale problems. Since the course is intended for graduates from disciplines other than Computer Science, no previous programming experience is assumed.

The course consists of both theory and practical sessions. An introduction to the C Programming language is given. The theory covers those topics which are common to major high level programming languages and furthermore it covers more advanced issues. The practical examples are suitably chosen so you can apply the knowledge that you have learned.

This programming certificate introduces students to the concepts of object-oriented programming. They will design, code, debug and test programs by applying the principles in the problem-solving process and the software design life cycle. The students will practice and understand the basic syntax, class libraries and data structures of the C++ programming language.
