Learn Java ME With The UK's Leading Experts At JBI Training

Why Come to JBI Training for a Java ME Course?

Client feedback shows that delegates on our courses will best engage when they can relate course topics to their own day-to-day practices and requirements. Where possible, we  run this course as a consultative, workshop-style event, in which discussion of relevant topics takes place in relation to the delegates' own applications and scenarios.

To facilitate this type of event, a subject matter expert leads the training, hands-on labs and discussions to ensure course topics are covered in a meaningful, relevant and timely manner. Delegates may be able to bring their own practical requirements and work to the course if the subjects and course topics are suitable.  

Course Overview

Java Micro Edition devices implement a profile. The most commonly used is the Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP) which is aimed at mobile devices, such as mobile phones, and the Personal Profile aimed at consumer products and embedded devices like set-top boxes and PDAs.

Course Content

This Hands-On training course provides delegates with intensive practical tuition using Sun’s J2ME. The topics covered will focus on the tools and environments which exist to help develop Java applications that run on mobile and wireless devices. Available as a public or closed course at our London training centre, or can be tailored to your team's requirements and delivered onsite as a bespoke, customised training course.

This course has been developed for real-world, commercial scenarios by our expert instructors. See below for detailed syllabus. If you have a technical question, please email [email protected]
