Github repository for Revature Accelerator Program beginning August 30, 2021.
RAP is a 12-week program that provides a fundamental understanding of Java and software development. The first six weeks of the program will focus mainly on the Java programming language and the last six weeks will introduce a few technologies related to software development including building, testing, and logging tools.
- Every week there are three 2-hour lectures (Monday, Wednesday, Friday starting at 11am ET) and optional supplementary assignments.
- Every two weeks there is an exam over previously learned concepts
- Every four weeks there is QC or verbal quiz over previously learned concepts
- There will be one console-based project to complete and present by the end of the program
- There will be one weekly office hour at 3pm ET on Thursays (same link as RAP classroom). If you would like to schedule another meeting time with me, send me an email at [email protected]
