The demand for skilled C++ developers continues to grow, and this Professional Certificate equips you with the essential skills to start a career in software development. No prior experience is required to get started.
Developed by industry experts, you’ll learn core programming concepts and progress to advanced techniques, including arrays, strings, file handling, modular programming, and object-oriented design. You’ll also gain experience with modern C++ features such as the Standard Template Library (STL), concurrency, multithreading, and optimization strategies. GenAI tools are introduced throughout the program to support code generation, code review, and documentation.
This program is ideal for career switchers and beginners interested in pursuing roles in software development, systems programming, or game development. Each course includes hands-on projects that give you the opportunity to apply what you’ve learned and build a professional portfolio.
By the end of the program, you’ll be able to:
Write, debug, and compile C++ programs that solve real problems
Apply modular and object-oriented programming principles
Implement advanced features such as STL, multithreading, and memory management
Use GenAI tools to support coding, reviewing, and documenting applications
You’ll finish with a portfolio of four projects and a Professional Certificate showcasing your C++ expertise—ready to pursue entry-level roles in software development.
Praktisches Lernprojekt
Projects give you the chance to apply C++ concepts to solve real-world problems and create work samples you can showcase to employers.
In Course 1, you’ll develop a command-line utility tool that demonstrates your understanding of syntax, data types, control flow, and compilation.
In Course 2, you’ll build a data processing application that works with arrays, strings, file I/O, and external libraries, while using GenAI tools to accelerate development.
In Course 3, you’ll design an object-oriented library management system that applies classes, inheritance, polymorphism, memory management, and robust error handling, with AI-based code review.
In Course 4, you’ll complete a capstone integrating advanced concepts such as STL, concurrency, multithreading, optimization, C++17/C++20 features, with full professional documentation.
Upon completion, you’ll have a portfolio of four substantial projects that demonstrate your ability to design, implement, and optimize C++ applications.
