This course introduces the developer to the JSF architecture and provides the basis for planning, developing, and deploying Web based applications using the JSF framework. After taking this class, the developer will be able to quickly construct dynamic server-side web pages using JSF and integrate the Web application with many of the other Java2 Enterprise Edition application server methodologies such as Enterprise Java Beans, JavaMail, and SOAPt.

Participants should already have a solid understanding of Java programming and understand the basics of XML. The course also assumes a basic understanding of HTML syntax and JavaServer Pages syntax. Understanding of Enterprise Java Beans (EJB) is also a plus.

This class combines lecture with a unifying, hands-on experience, and an open  discussion that will help the developer quickly understand the benefits of JSF and how to use the framework.
