Course Title: Android App Development: Building Mobile Applications Using the Android Studio A mobile app is a software application developed specifically for use on small, wireless computer devices, such as smartphones and tablets.

Android Studio is the official Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for Android app development. It has features that enhance system developers’ productivity when building Android apps and accelerate development and help build the highest-quality apps for every Android device. It offers tools custom-tailored for Android developers, including rich code editing, debugging, testing, and profiling tools.

Course Description: This 5-day training introduces the most essential steps to build real-world and exciting mobile applications today using the Android SDK (System Development Kit). It covers the fundamentals of building apps for embedded devices, smartphones and tablets. This highlights how to create and customize rich user interfaces, manage, and process. This guides system developers deploy Android apps in physical devices.

activity purpose Due to the increasing demand for mobile technology, the purpose of this training is to capacitate our system developers in building cutting-edge Android applications to fast-track current government operations and services in an easy and accessible platform.

In line with the e-Governance program’s strategy, Android applications would serve as the beginning of a modern and out-of-the-box technological solution for the full automation of critical processes and services of PG-DdN. The 5-day training on Android App Development has become a fertile ground where new ideas are embedded.

As one objective of the e-Governance program to strengthen the institutional capacity of the PADOIT Division, this learning intervention has enriched the skill set of our developers whose talents and potentials would help them accomplish a given function.

For the upcoming years, the province of Davao del Norte will be able to grasp the features of Android applications in providing better and faster government transaction.
