ICS is pleased to bring you this introductory 5 part webinar series that will introduce students to the Qt framework. Each webinar, one of our seasoned engineers will give an overview of a specific aspect of the Qt framework. A basic knowledge of the C++ programming language is required, but the webinar will include a short refresher on the required C++ and object-oriented concepts needed to use Qt. It is also recommended that those wishing to learn from this series, attend each webinar in succession.
