Audience And Prerequisites
The training is designed for programmers who already know Java. For those who do not, we offer a prep course in Java, J-PRE-ANDROID, or, alternatively, the complete Java Programmer course – those who prefer to learn Java on their own can use the newest edition of Bruce Eckel’s book Thinking in Java.
Certificates
Course participants receive completion certificates signed by ALX.
We offer IT training courses in: operating systems (among others, Linux), programming languages, modelling and analysis tools, databases (for programmers and analysts), computer networks and safety, and office software.

Authorizations And certifications
We are an authorized Linux Professional Institute (LPI) partner. We are an authorized Microsoft partners for Learning Solutions.
Among our staff are certified trainers such as:
MS Office, MS Project, project management:
Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT), PRINCE2 Foundation
Linux:
Linux Proffessional Institute (LPIC),
Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE),
Novell Certified Linux Administrator (CLA)
Programming languages:
Sun Certified Java Programmer (SCJP),
Zend Certified Engineer (ZCE)
When we design our courses and training, we pay particular attention to actual business demands and needs and the situation in the job market.
Example:
The market needs reliable system administrators who have both the practical skills and the familiarity with theoretical fundamentals (such as: how does protocol X actually work? why does it work?).
We often saw that, in spite of the existence of many postgraduate courses, training and IT schools it is difficult to find a good Linux system administrator.
College graduates who majored in IT often have extensive knowledge - and problems with putting it into practice and dealing with the technical part of the job.
On the other hand, graduates of postgraduate schools or hurried preparatory courses often have incomplete, obsolete or otherwise inaccurate knowledge that is out of touch with the realities of IT professional's life.
During course design we are also using the experience we have gained as an employer. The knowledge our students acquire is the knowledge we ourselves would expect from job candidates.
Other Projects, Deployment, Consulting
ALX also offers: deployment of tailor-made IT systems (among others, CRM systems and document systems), consulting and system and network outsourcing.
Apply now to become a professional Kotlin Developer
This certified module will help students explore Android & iOS App Development from the basic level going up to the advanced one, from writing their first code to publishing an app on the App Store.
Our Xamarin training course is aimed at .NET developers who are looking to benefit from existing software development skills with Visual Studio and C# in order to develop commercial-quality apps rapidly and deploy to both iOS and Android (these are the key platforms of focus for this course).
Kotlin is a general-purpose ‘pragmatic’ programming language for the JVM statically typed (Java Virtual Machine).
This course is an introduction to mobile app design for user interfaces (UI) with Figma. This will include the key stages of designing an app such as layouts and components. ‘Figma is the free mobile design tool trusted by design teams at Uber, Square, and Twitter.
