The question is not whether Java will disappear (it will happen someday), but when or at what pace. " SourceForge is the star language, closely followed by C + + and slightly further away from PHP. O'Reilly says that sales of his books were already Ruby greater than that of Python and last year they have also recorded a decrease of 4% in the books of Java and a 16% growth in C #Related Links
I'm from Madrid, Studio 4 º of Computer Engineering, and after having studied at the school several subjects related to Java I I decided to get some certification in this platform. I got two, one as a Java programmer and developer 1.4 and other web components (servlet, JSP) in 1.4, both were approved with over 95% of note. The day after getting the second certification I sent my resume by infojobs several companies, at 24 hours had arranged to hire two queries. I signed with the first offered it to me, and without experience and with the race still in the middle (then was 3 º) I was hired by 18,000 euros gross per year. Just over a year and 3 months later my salary is 25000 euro in annual gross, which I think is not bad for someone as little more than a year of experience. My experience is that certifications have opened many doors. Related Links
The Review:
* Relax (If necessary to learn Yoga par with Java).
* Please read the questions and code. (Look for syntax errors)
* Remember that all questions are traps.
* Drink plenty of water (the brain is going to overheat!)
* Has 2 Hour ... is long enough, do not worry. After
Review:
* Celebrate and not worry that smile on your face tattoos will last for several days.
* If you lost, do not worry ... try to resubmit it in the next two weeks to avoid losing momentum.
PROS:
1. They have great weight in the curriculum.
2. They make a conscientious study.
3. Can help the company's certificate winning projects.
4. Are intellectually challenging (though some think this is a "counter")
CONS:
1. They are expensive (for this, many people take them as part of the business of certifying).
2. It is possible that many issues are not part of certification (eg not evaluate SCJP Serializing Objects and is very common use.)
3. The certification represents no experience, just knowledge. Related Links
Do I need certification?
must certify you if you so choose.
For what can they do?
open many doors to access not only to companies but to many other things, publish books, create articles, publications, speak at events, etc.
represent a guarantee for a company that at least one person has looked at a particular agenda and knows a platform.
Help to stand out from other candidates with equal curriculms if you are looking for work.
may be the access key to a better salary.
self-satisfaction is a much cheaper alternative than others such as a Master as possible (I'd even say it is highly recommended) to study the agenda for your account.
have a great relationship between time studio / benefits / cost.
Why can not be valued? ( Martin's Blog)
Because companies are not known. It is quite possible / probable that he or the evil / a responsible human resources department does not know what it is for certification. Just know that it is something that others do not. Obviously this means to him / her that this certification does not mean that you will pay more. Because
want to take advantage of one. Whenever you can attempt to demonstrate the work that has taken years to obtain certification and the extra value offered by a company that you have this certification. But you will find in the case of a person you send to multiple customers with a reputation for being "an expert in XXX with many certifications" although it is getting like a simple YYY. Due
union / legal / etc. Perhaps a company such as the state, has set the salaries charged categories. The certifications come very badly within these categories. In these cases it is pressing for a productivity bonus or something similar.
The course is darling, but the pass rate is high.
I tell you. It is true that there are a lot of assumptions Masters in Java. I have not been and I can not give any opinion. Nor is the level of Java you have. But if I can speak from my experience (and many other people I know) to obtain certification.
With enthusiasm and motivation to learn and a minimal base and experience in Java, it is entirely possible to learn on your own. There is a lot of free material on the Internet, and even books that can scar the library to prepare. As you progress you can start testing small programs in Java, and to test the Internet (See our resource section of the website)
the end, when you feel ready and get, you'll see that the ratio (money spent / benefits ) will be very great.
Also from what I heard, the academies often leave much to be desired, with large level differences in students, bad teachers, etc.
I speak of the "Master Degree in Java" by CIFE training and consulting. Not worth it, do not give no documentation on J2EE, the methodology is to copy and copy and copy from the board (Somewhat dated), and worse, does not fulfill the agenda at all. I just finished and I would not recommend to anyone.

The single topic exams are most effectively used as a companion to any exam study guide.
