Four-day in-house course for up to 12 participants. Delivered in Zürich, at your office across Switzerland or Europe, or fully remote; content is tailored to your team's experience and stack.

When This Training Is Worth Your Team's Time

For CTOs and engineering managers deciding whether a shared Spring baseline warrants four days away from delivery work.

  • Your Team Is Adopting Spring

    Java developers need a common foundation before they take responsibility for Spring and Spring Boot applications.

  • Knowledge Is Uneven

    The team uses Spring already, but gaps in dependency injection, transactions, testing, or web fundamentals make reviews and design discussions inconsistent.

  • Certification Supports the Plan

    Spring Certified Professional preparation is useful alongside the team's practical work, rather than as a separate exam-cramming exercise.

What You Will Learn

Participants connect the framework concepts to working code and practise the topics relevant to Spring application development and the current Spring Certified Professional exam guide.

  • IoC & Dependency Injection

    Understand the Inversion of Control container, bean lifecycle, scopes, and how to wire components with annotations and Java configuration.

  • Aspect-Oriented Programming

    Apply cross-cutting concerns cleanly using Spring AOP: pointcuts, advice types, and proxies explained with practical examples.

  • Data Access

    Work with Spring JDBC, JPA, and transactions. Handle exceptions, manage connections, and build transaction-aware data access layers.

  • Spring MVC & Web

    Build RESTful APIs and web applications with Spring MVC: controllers, data binding, validation, and error handling.

  • Spring Boot Essentials

    Understand auto-configuration, starters, embedded servers, and Spring Boot's opinionated defaults that accelerate application development.

  • Testing Spring Applications

    Write effective unit and integration tests using Spring's test context framework, MockMvc, and embedded databases.

  • Spring Security Basics

    Secure applications with authentication, authorisation, and method-level security using Spring Security's core abstractions.

Who Is This Training For?

This training is designed for Java developers who want to build or deepen their Spring Framework skills and apply them in enterprise or cloud-native projects.

  • Java Developers

    Developers with Java experience who are new to Spring or want to fill gaps in their knowledge of the framework's core.

  • Teams Adopting Spring

    Engineering teams starting or standardising on Spring who need a shared, solid foundation before moving to Spring Boot or microservices.

  • Tech Leads & Architects

    Leads who want a structured overview of Spring's core to guide architectural decisions and code reviews more effectively.
