The Cisco Networking Academy Program has extended its reach beyond its well-established and highly successful CCNA and CCNP curricula. Cisco Systems has partnered with other leading information technology companies to bring robust Web-based courses focusing on popular IT areas. The Fundamentals of Java Programming course, sponsored by Sun Microsystems, was launched over the summer with the first courses being offered in Fall 2002. Approximately 20% of the Networking Academies will move forward with the Java course by Spring 2003. It is expected to grow considerably during the Fall 2003 semester. The Engineering Journal and Workbook from Cisco Press maps directly to the Web-based course and also features additional exercises to prepare students for the Sun Certified Programmer for the Java 2 Platform exam. This journal and workbook will use a step-by-step approach to developing an understanding of Object-Oriented programming. It will teach students how to use the Java language's object-oriented technologies to solve business problems. Students will learn how to create classes, objects, and applications using the language. Topics will also include the language fundamentals and the Java language API (application programming interface).
