The aim of this course is to advance users past the early stages of program development introduced with our Visual BASIC Primer course. This course introduces data structures and the step-wise refinement approach to developing software solutions vital to progress to more advanced stages of program design.
Attendees will focus on problem solving to solve basic computingproblems as well as learning standard algorithms for sorting and searching data. The course requires one group project and one individual project to be completed by the end of the course and presented to the class. View the certification path
