Elevate your PHP skills and build powerful, enterprise-grade applications! This intensive course dives deep into Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) principles and their practical application in PHP, empowering you to create clean, modular, and maintainable code.

Go beyond procedural programming and unlock the full potential of PHP! Learn to design robust architectures, manage complex data structures, and write code that scales with your projects.

What You’ll Learn:

  • OOP Fundamentals: Classes, objects, properties, and methods.
  • Encapsulation, Inheritance, and Polymorphism: Core OOP concepts and their practical applications.
  • Namespaces and Autoloading: Organising and managing your code effectively.
  • Design Patterns: Implementing proven solutions to common programming challenges.
  • Error Handling with Exceptions: Writing robust and fault-tolerant code.
  • Working with Interfaces and Abstract Classes: Defining contracts and building flexible systems.
  • Dependency Injection: Building loosely coupled and testable applications.
  • Composer and Package Management: Leveraging external libraries and managing dependencies.
  • Applying OOP principles to real-world web development scenarios.

Why Learn OOP in PHP?

  • Improved Code Organisation: Create modular and reusable code.
  • Enhanced Maintainability: Make it easier to modify and extend your applications.
  • Increased Scalability: Design systems that can handle growing complexity.
  • Better Collaboration: Write code that’s easier for teams to understand and work with.
  • Industry Standard: OOP is essential for building modern web applications.

What to Expect:

  • Intensive, hands-on learning with practical examples.
  • In-depth exploration of core OOP concepts.
  • Guidance on applying OOP to real-world projects.
  • Opportunities for code review and feedback.
  • Access to resources and best practices.

This course is ideal for:

  • PHP developers looking to transition to OOP.
  • Developers who want to build more complex and scalable applications.
  • Anyone seeking to improve their PHP code quality and maintainability.

Take your PHP skills to the next level and build the future of web applications!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

When does the course start?

The next cohort begins in June 2025. Once you register, you’ll be added to the Slack channel where the exact class schedule and Zoom links will be shared.

What kind of device or system do I need?

You’ll need a laptop or desktop with a stable internet connection. Your system should support a local PHP development environment such as XAMPP, MAMP, or Laragon, and a code editor like VS Code. Windows, macOS, and Linux are all supported.

Will the classes be recorded?

Yes, all Zoom classes will be recorded. The recordings will be uploaded to YouTube and set to Private, you’ll be given access after each class.

Will I have access to learning materials after the course?

Absolutely. In addition to the live classes, you’ll receive access to previously recorded sessions, example code, and supplementary resources to support your learning.

What is the format of the assignments?

Assignments are mostly take-home, meaning you’ll receive them after class and be expected to complete them before the next session. They’ll be reviewed with personalized feedback to help you grow.

Is attendance important?

Yes! Attending live sessions (or watching the recordings if you miss them) is crucial for staying on track with the course and fully understanding the material.

Is this a self-paced course or cohort-based?

This is a cohort-based course, meaning all students start and progress together. If you miss this cohort, you can join the next one when it opens.

Is this course suitable for beginners?

This course is designed for developers with basic PHP knowledge. If you’re new to PHP entirely, we recommend starting with a beginner-level course before diving into Object-Oriented Programming (OOP).

How do I communicate with the instructor or other students?

We use a dedicated Slack channel for announcements, support, and collaboration throughout the course.

What if I’m not sure if the course is right for me?

If you have any questions about your eligibility or the course structure, feel free to book a call before registering. We’re happy to guide you!

Can I still join if I missed the start date?

If space allows, we may offer late enrollment for students willing to catch up via recordings and assignments. You can also join the waitlist for the next cohort.

Will I receive a certificate?

Yes! You’ll receive either a Certificate of participation or completion upon completing the course.
