In the C Programming course, students are introduced to all major language elements including fundamental data types, flow control, and standard function libraries. The C++ course introduces core object oriented programming concepts including inheritance, encapsulation and polymorphism. C++ syntax and style are taught in the context of using object-oriented methods to achieve reusability, adaptability and reliability. Students can utilize Microsoft Visual Studio to complete hands-on labs or a UNIX-based environment if desired.
Upon completion of this program, students will have acquired an appropriate knowledge base and hands-on development experience to pursue an entry-level C programmer or C++ developer position in the workforce.

Prerequisite:
Students who lack programming experience may elect to attend the introductory Learning to Program with C#
Our unique approach combines on-demand training with personal facilitation and comprehensive hands-on exercises to assure successful training and competence in the IT workplace. Our support staff provides personal setup assistance, guidance and lab equipment setup for each student. An instructor is assigned to each student to assist in completing lab exercises and to help with any questions about the course content. Our classes are designed to be 50% lecture and 50% hands on exercises. Lab exercises are performed via direct high-speed access to a dedicated lab machine, providing responsive interaction and anywhere/anytime accessibility by the lab facilitator as well as the student.
This course is available for "remote" learning and will be available to anyone with access to an internet device with a microphone (this includes most models of computers, tablets). Classes will take place with a "Live" instructor at the date/times listed below.
