Course Abstract
Complete Java Web Development is a crash course in developing cutting edge Web applications using the latest Java EE 5 technologies from Sun and the open source community. The course builds a strong understanding of Servlet technology as the cornerstone of Java's Web platform. It shows how JSPs build on the Servlet architecture and help your development teams achieve clear role separation. Allowing Web developers to focus on functionality while the Web designers create the layout - without stepping on each other's toes. Additionally, the class will show you how to use JSTL, custom tags and JSP expression language to reduce Java code in Web pages while adding tremendous power and capability to those pages. Attendees will also learn JavaBean component development and how these components can be easily integrated into JSPs. The class culminates in an exploration of Java MVC frameworks and compares some of the more popular offerings like Struts and Spring MVC.

While focusing on Web technologies, the course also exposes developers to the constant trade off between application robustness and complexity. This is not a class that focuses on theory. Participants will find the course is loaded with practical labs and simulations. After taking this class, your developers will be able to build Web applications faster, that are more scalable, and that are easier to maintain.
