Online Course Management System

Overview

The Online Course Management System is a Java-based application designed to simplify the management of educational courses in an online setting. It allows instructors to create, update, and manage courses, while students can enroll and participate in these courses.

Features

• Course Creation and Management: Instructors can create new courses, update existing course details, and manage course offerings.
• Student Enrollment: Students can enroll in courses and access course materials.
• Dynamic Course Catalog: A list of available courses that students can browse and join.
