ntended for entry to mid-level Java? developers, JBoss Enterprise Application Development (JB295) course will expose students to JBoss? Java EE frameworks, specifications, and interfaces (APIs). Students will learn how to create and maintain Java EE-compliant applications from start to finish using the Eclipse-based JBoss Developer Studio. Comprehensive lecture and extensive use-case, hands-on labs will introduce the student to Seam, Hibernate, and other related technologies that help create a fully functional enterprise Java application. By the end of the course, students will build a complete multi-tier enterprise application, including a web-based front end, a web services layer, EJB-layer, and a persistence layer, as well as code for test cases at all levels.
The number of students may be adjusted after the course has been added to the cart.

Intended for entry to mid-level Java? developers, JBoss Enterprise
Application Development (JB295) course will expose students to
JBoss? Java EE frameworks, specifications, and interfaces (APIs).
Students will learn how to create and maintain Java EE-compliant
applications from start to finish using the Eclipse-based JBoss
Developer Studio. Comprehensive lecture and extensive use-case,
hands-on labs will introduce the student to Seam, Hibernate, and
other related technologies that help create a fully functional
enterprise Java application. By the end of the course, students will
build a complete multi-tier enterprise application, including a
web-based front end, a web services layer, EJB-layer, and a
persistence layer, as well as code for test cases at all levels.
