ANDROID APPS DEVELOPMENT FOR BEGINNER

---

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

This course uses a four-phased approach on Java programming and how to build Android applications. A new application is created with each section of the course, each demonstrating various objects, methods, and logic used in Android development. The Android open source platform offers compatibility with a wide range of devices, which provides global access and ease to the mobile market. At the end of this course, students will have vast knowledge of Java and know how to deliver robust business applications for Androids and tablets.
