Overview

In many IT departments of German companies, English is spoken by default. There are good reasons for this. In order to counter the shortage of skilled labour, foreign IT specialists are also being recruited, whose integration is facilitated by English. Specialised literature and technical documentation are often written in English, which makes English language skills necessary. In addition, companies often work with international partners and service providers, with English serving as the common language. Finally, English is used in programming languages and technical standards, which simplifies communication.

An English-language Software Developer course helps train talented individuals in Germany and abroad. It prepares participants to work in international companies and in German companies with English-speaking IT departments.

The "Software Developer (IHK) - English" training program equips you with both theoretical knowledge and practical skills essential for success in the dynamic world of software development. Through a combination of live online trainings and hands-on projects, you will learn the principles of object-oriented programming, laying a solid foundation for your career in this rapidly evolving field.

Missed individual sessions can each be made up by watching the recording.

Please enrol soon to secure your spot in this training program. With limited class sizes, you will have better opportunities for interactive learning, engaging discussions, and personalised guidance from our experienced trainers.

Certificate

The course ends with a final test in the form of project work. The project work is carried out independently by the participants and is supported by the lecturer with tutorials. At the end of the project work, an individual technical discussion takes place as an online conference with the trainer. For individual identification and the technical discussion (course presentation), the participant will need a webcam or a smartphone with a camera.

Participants receive the IHK certificate "Software Developer (IHK)" after completing the course and passing the project work including the technical discussion. Note: The IHK certificate is not equivalent to a certificate under public law and does not constitute personal certification in accordance with ISO.

Requirements

Neither a specific educational qualification nor relevant professional experience is required for admission to project work with technical discussions.
