Training program

Module 1Introduction to Scala: installation and first steps (SBT tools, IntelliJ IDE)

Dive into the Scala universe by installing SBT and IntelliJ, set up your environment in 30 minutes, run your first Hello World script, explore the interactive REPL to test code live, discover the hybrid functional/object advantages over Java, and end with a simple collections manipulation exercise, ready to code tomorrow.

Module 2Basic Scala Syntax: variables, functions, types (implicit methods, pattern matching)

Master val/var variables, write pure and anonymous functions, handle advanced types like Option and Try, practice pattern matching on real JSON parsing cases, solve interactive pair exercises, and produce a mini-program for tabular data processing, with personalized feedback to progress quickly.

Module 3Object-Oriented Programming: classes, traits, inheritance (real-world use cases)

Build classes and companion objects, implement traits for powerful mixins, explore inheritance and singletons, apply to a concrete banking system modeling case, code in real-time with screen sharing, write unit tests via ScalaTest, and deliver a reusable module, with an immediate sense of mastery.

Module 4Functional Programming: immutability, higher-order functions (monads, for-comprehensions)

Adopt total immutability, chain higher-order functions like map/flatMap, break down Future and Option monads in practical exercises, transform imperative loops into elegant for-comprehensions, simulate a Big Data ETL, collaborate on timed challenges, and generate production-ready functional deliverables.

Module 5Advanced Scala Projects: Spark integration, best practices (deployment, optimization)

Integrate Spark for distributed processing, develop a complete ETL pipeline on real datasets, apply refactoring and code optimization, package with SBT for Docker deployment, present your project in a pitch, receive expert audit, and leave with a concrete portfolio, boosted for your first Scala jobs.
