Modern Android App development using Kotlin
Description
Kotlin is the state-of-the-art alternative to Java and can be used in a wide range of scenarios, even outside the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). You can, for example, use Kotlin to implement native Android apps, web backends or cross-platform libraries.
This training provides a practice-oriented introduction to the programming language Kotlin and modern Android app development. The trainer, Johannes Schamburger,brings extensive expertise from his projects and incorporates his experiences into the training.
The participants learn all the important tools to develop Android apps with Kotlin. The training is strongly based on the official Android development documentation. In the course, participants develop a small app (Github Client), which is expanded bit by bit. All mediated content is practiced directly in tasks.
This training focuses on the idea of learning together. There is always the opportunity to exchange ideas, ask questions and influence the content of the training.

Johannes Schamburger
Our training approach
From the needs analysis to the awarding of certificates, we offer customized training courses, flexibly designed and carried out according to your requirements.
If you are interested in in-house training, we will start by identifying your needs and discussing your objectives. This discussion forms the basis for an initial offer.
As soon as the framework data has been clarified, our trainers start adapting the training content. Many of our training courses have a modular structure and offer the opportunity to design the agenda flexibly. Training courses that prepare for certifications, on the other hand, are less flexible. Here, however, you can set the content focus according to your wishes.
You will receive all relevant information in advance of the training. The training will then take place in the room of your choice and at the agreed time. Our trainers will adapt to your requirements.
After completing the training, all participants receive a certificate confirming their participation. You will also have the opportunity to give us feedback on the content and the course. We are always happy to receive praise and suggestions for improvement.
