Overview

Introduction to Object Technology is a course designed to introduce Object Technology to those with no prior exposure or those whose exposure has been light (or peripheral) and now a deeper understanding is needed - typically in preparation for beginning a project.

Format

The course is a combination of lecture and lab exercises, and can be done in one or two days, depending upon the amount of depth desired. The one day format consists primarily of lecture with almost no lab time. The two day format allows full exploration of the lecture material in the lab exercises.
