I have just completed the course Java Essential Training on lynda.com.  The course covered primitive data types,  Exploring Syntax and Flow, Working with Complex Objects, Exception Handling and Debugging, Using Data Collections, Creating Custom Classes,  Working with Inheritance and Polymorphism, Working with Files, Preparing an Application for Deployment.

Although I was familiar with a lot of the subjects covered the actual  syntax in Java can be a little upside down looking.  I was also a bit confused about superclasses and inheritance but that’s cleared up a bit now.

I will be building an Android application for the College soon so the next course I am going to do is Android App Development with Java – Essential Training.

The most important parts for me to learn are creating navigation structures and reading XML and parsing as the interfaces I have written to our systems are mainly web services.
