Spring Boot is one of the most powerful and popular frameworks for building modern backend applications in Java. From startups to enterprise platforms, developers across the world rely on Spring Boot to create robust, scalable, and production-ready services. This course is designed for anyone who has a basic understanding of Java and wants to take the next step into web application development, backend engineering, and API building using Spring Boot.
The Spring Boot Training course at NAF Tech Academy offers a hands-on, project-based introduction to backend development with Java. You’ll learn how to use the Spring Boot framework to build complete applications, from database integration and RESTful APIs to deployment-ready code and testing.
Starting with an overview of Spring and its core modules, the course guides you through creating REST endpoints, connecting to databases with Spring Data JPA, implementing user authentication, handling exceptions, and using tools like Postman for API testing. By the end of the course, you will have built several real-world backend services and understand how modern backend systems are designed, secured, and maintained.
This course is led by experienced backend developers and is designed to simulate a professional development workflow with real coding assignments and industry-style project structure.
This course is ideal for Java developers who want to expand their skill set into backend and full-stack development. It’s also suitable for computer science students, recent graduates, and junior developers aiming to learn backend application architecture and practical deployment techniques.
If you’re planning to apply for backend developer jobs, work with APIs, or build production-ready applications, Spring Boot is an essential skill—and this course helps you master it with clarity and confidence.
To get the most out of this course, you should already be comfortable with core Java concepts like classes, objects, inheritance, interfaces, and collections. If you’ve completed a Java fundamentals course or built basic console applications, you’re ready to begin.
While prior exposure to web development, HTML, or databases is helpful, it’s not required. Everything you need to start will be covered, and the trainer will walk you through the environment setup and coding practices step by step.
The course starts by helping you set up a professional-grade development environment using IntelliJ IDEA, Java SDK, and the Spring Initializr. From there, you’ll explore the foundations of Spring Boot, including auto-configuration, dependencies, and the structure of a typical Spring project.
You’ll then move into developing RESTful APIs, handling HTTP requests and responses, working with databases using Spring Data JPA and Hibernate, and configuring database schemas. Authentication and authorization are introduced using Spring Security, and you’ll also learn to structure your code for scalability and reuse.
Throughout the course, each concept is reinforced through mini-projects and one full-stack backend application as a final project.
Live sessions are available on both weekdays and weekends, with class timings suited for working professionals and students. All batches come with class recordings, downloadable code files, GitHub repositories, and ongoing Telegram support.
You can choose a weekday evening batch if you prefer regular progress throughout the week, or join a weekend batch to dedicate focused learning time. For learners who want flexibility, we also offer a self-paced recorded version with weekly feedback sessions.
Our batches are kept small to ensure personalized attention and interactive learning, and students are encouraged to ask questions and participate in live code walkthroughs.
The course is taught by Salman Javed, a Senior Java Developer and API architect with over a decade of experience building high-traffic backend systems. Salman has delivered enterprise-grade applications using Spring Boot, Hibernate, and PostgreSQL for clients in fintech, healthcare, and education.
He’s a passionate teacher who emphasizes writing clean code, understanding backend design principles, and building developer confidence through hands-on practice. Students appreciate his ability to connect theory with real-world development situations.
While Spring Boot doesn’t have a centralized certification exam like CompTIA or AWS, completing this course positions you strongly for certifications such as the Oracle Certified Professional: Java Developer or Spring Professional Certification (VMware).
The course itself includes guided assessments, coding challenges, and a certificate of completion from NAF Tech Academy. You’ll also build a capstone project you can include in your resume or portfolio for job applications.
Spring Boot is a core skill for backend roles and full-stack engineering positions. After completing this course, you’ll be qualified to work as a Junior Backend Developer, Java API Developer, or Full Stack Java Developer (with additional frontend skills). You’ll also be able to build and deploy your own applications using standard industry practices.
Employers across tech, finance, e-commerce, and SaaS actively seek Spring Boot experience. By learning how to build and secure real-world APIs, manage databases, and structure backend logic efficiently, you’ll be job-ready for both freelance and full-time development work.
No. As long as you’re comfortable with basic Java concepts like classes, loops, and functions, you’ll be able to follow the course. Everything beyond core Java will be taught from scratch.
Yes. You’ll create several small apps along the way and build one complete REST API backend as your final project. The project includes database integration, user management, and error handling.
You’ll work with IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse, Java 17 or later, Spring Boot, Maven, Postman, GitHub, and a relational database like MySQL or PostgreSQL. You’ll also get deployment tips using platforms like Heroku or Render.
Absolutely. The course is structured to reflect how real backend systems are built and includes coding assessments and portfolio-ready projects. It’s designed to help you stand out in backend development interviews.
