Boot camp Projects:
Student may choose from a few given options, prioritise frontend, backend or full
for their projects.
Project requirements for the Boot camp Certification:
To receive the PCWorkshops Programmer Java Certificate students need to work on a project and complete practicals.
Uploading any one project of you choice, is necessary for the certificate.
We evaluate practicals during the course of the bootcamp.
Exclusion from projects:
If you would like to be excluded from the project, then you mention that on the registration form.
You may be excluded from the project, but this will not qualify you for any discount.
In-work professionals:
Some Boot camp students attend because their employers want them to attend to upgrade their skills and they sometime apply to be excused from the projects, because they have limited time and they work already where they are involved in their professional projects.
Previous Boot camp project topics include:
Movie theatre ticket sales
Student Management System
Hotel Booking System
Bank Management Project
E-commerce Product Sales
Services quotation system
Quiz app
Food Ordering System
Media Player Application
