For a limited time, when you purchase the associated Microsoft Technology Associate (MTA) exam along with the edX Professional Certificate program, pay only $99 for the exam (normally $127) and only $79 per course for each of the three courses (normally $99 each), for a total savings of $88 on the exam and courses combined. Within five to seven business days of your purchase, you’ll receive a voucher code and instructions to use when you schedule the exam. The voucher expires on September 30, 2018.
The courses in this Professional Certificate program introduce you to the “science” of computer science. In biology, DNA forms the basic building blocks of life. DNA strands can be replicated and built upon each other to form complex objects called proteins that can make all sorts of interesting creatures from bacteria to elephants. Similarly, software code can be built in such a way so that it can be reused and paired with other software to create complex software systems.
In this Professional Certificate program you will have the opportunity to explore the nuts and bolts of reusable code objects (called “object-oriented” programming). You’ll get exposed to professional software tools and learn how to compile software programs (and why that’s important). You’ll also learn about basic algorithms that programmers use to create everything from simple automation programs to complex systems that run factories. A program like this wouldn’t be complete without learning how to quickly manipulate data using software so you’ll learn about hash tables, stacks, and trees as efficient and speedy ways to manage information.
Each course in this program will keep you challenged with exercises, practice quizzes, and exams that will not only test your learning but help you evaluate how well you’re learning. Your instructors both have written code for large software applications and have spent many hours in front of students in a classroom teaching these concepts. They’ve applied their time (and student) tested materials to develop these courses.
The Microsoft Technology Associate (MTA) is an entry-level certification that can help to enhance your technical credibility and professional confidence. The Introduction to Code Objects and Algorithms Professional Certificate program gets you started on your journey toward the MTA certification associated with Introduction to Programming Using Java. Take advantage of this discounted offer to skill up on basic Java concepts, learn to write efficient code, and gain core technical knowledge around object-oriented programming—and then take the MTA exam.*
*Completion of these courses doesn’t guarantee that you will pass the MTA exam, since more training or experience may be necessary, but the courses can help you get started on your path to MTA certification.
