// connect to the category manager
 CategoriesManager catManager = CategoriesManager.createInstance(auditableClient, iprojectAreaHandle,
                        null);
// get the parent node
CategoryTreeNode parent =    catManager.getRoot();             
 // create a child
CategoryTreeNode childCat = parent.createChild("child_cat_name");

 public static void MoveICategory(ITeamRepository teamRepository, IProjectArea projectArea, IAuditableClient auditableClient, ICategoryHandle newParentCategoryHandle, ICategoryHandle childCategoryHandle){
CategoriesManager catManager = null;
CategoryTreeNode newParent = null;
CategoryTreeNode childCategoryTreeNode = null;
try {
    catManager = CategoriesManager.createInstance(auditableClient, (IProjectAreaHandle) projectArea.getItemHandle(),  null); 
    newParent = catManager.findNode(newParentCategoryHandle);
    childCategoryTreeNode = catManager.findNode(childCategoryHandle);
    childCategoryTreeNode.moveTo(newParent);
    catManager.save(null);

} catch (TeamRepositoryException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
