More and more companies are looking for experts who are experienced in programming to help them develop applications, company websites, and help to maintain and improve the current software and applications used for companies’ daily operations. From the statement above, one can conclude that learning programming is gaining more advantages in working in current industries. The increasing importance in programming leads to companies nowadays searching for recent graduates that are experienced in programming and have strong knowledge in computer science. To meet this criterion, more competitions are organized for students to compete on and thus show their skills to future employers from their resumes. One of the most popular competitions is the International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) which is held worldwide. The purpose of this project was to create a training course site for the ICPC competition training course for NTU students. This course site will contain many questions from different programming practice sites for students to practice on. NTU students who are enrolled in this program will be able to access them and use them to prepare for the competition.
