Course Abstract:	Learn how to harness the power of the Eclipse Foundation’s Rich Client Platform to develop feature-rich end-user applications. Approximately 50% of the time is devoted to hands-on lab exercises.
Audience:	This course is designed for System architects, application developers and software engineers who will be designing and/or implementing applications using the Eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP).
Duration:	5 days
Learning Outcomes:	Key benefits and unique features of this course: > The course is lab-centric: the slides support the lab exercises rather than the reverse. > The lab instructions allow students to choose their own level of depth: hints and solutions are provided at the end of each lab and optional challenge learning activities are included. Many labs include diagrams and other supplementary reference material. > Most labs build on each other but some optional labs are also included. > Course material is updated regularly based on student feedback.
