Duration 4 Days 24 CPD hours This course is intended for This is an introductory-level C++ programming course designed for developers with experience programming in C or other languages. Practical hands-on prior programming experience and knowledge is required. Overview This 'skills-centric' course is about 50% hands-on lab and 50% lecture, designed to train attendees in basic coding with C++, coupling the most current, effective techniques with the soundest industry practices. Our engaging instructors and mentors are highly experienced practitioners who bring years of current 'on-the-job' experience into every classroom. Working in a hands-on learning environment, guided by our expert team, attendees will learn: Writing procedural programs using C++ Using private, public and protected keywords to control access to class members Defining a class in C++ Writing constructors and destructors Writing classes with const and static class members Overloading operators Implementing polymorphic methods in programs Writing programs using file I/O and string streams Using manipulators and stream flags to format output Using the keyword template to write generic functions and classes Writing programs that use generic classes and functions Writing programs that use algorithms and containers of the Standard Library Apply object-oriented design techniques to real-world programming problems Using algorithms and containers of the Standard Library to manipulate string data Understand how C++ protects the programmer from implementation changes in other modules of an application Using try() blocks to trap exceptions Using catch() blocks to handle exceptions Defining exceptions and using throw to trigger them Introduction to C++ Programming / C++ Essentials is a skills-focused, hands-on C++ training course geared for experienced programmers who need to learn C++ coupled with sounds coding skills and best practices for OO development. Students will leave this course armed with the required skills to put foundation-level C++ programming skills right to work in a practical environment. The central concepts of C++ syntax and style are taught in the context of using object-oriented methods to achieve reusability, adaptability and reliability. Emphasis is placed on the features of C++ that support abstract data types, inheritance, and polymorphism. Students will learn to apply the process of data abstraction and class design. Practical aspects of C++ programming including efficiency, performance, testing, and reliability considerations are stressed throughout.

The course will be delivered through 9 online virtual classroom sessions. The 10th and last session will involve the additional practical work for the course as well as the written examination (multiple choice for City & Guilds and written for Hi-Tech Training) which will take place at our training centre at 43 North Great Georges Street, Dublin 1 (completed online for non ROI learners). During the virtual classroom sessions, trainees will have a live video feed with their instructor talking to them, doing practical live demonstrations on equipment being involved actively in the learning. We will send out a practical kit so that trainees can complete assignments and practical work at home. The kit is the property of Hi-Tech Training and will be returned to Hi-Tech Training on the last day of the course. (The kits may also be purchased by the learner….see the Kits Page Link for more details). The kit consists of power supply unit breadboard, multimeter, cables, The kit consists of breadboard, multimeter, oscilloscope, battery and connectors, components including resistors, LEDs and ICs (AND, NAND, OR, NOR, X-OR, X-NOR, Inverter, Buffer, Latches, Flip-Flops, Timers, etc). Trainees will build various projects as part of the course. The kit forms an integral part of the course, so full course fees need to be paid at least 7 days prior to course commencement to allow time to ship the kit in time for the course.
