Your Guide to Getting Started With Java Certification
Working a career plan is hard enough without having to dig around to find everything you need.
The Java Foundations 1Z0-811 exam is priced lower but don’t let that fool you. It is still a valid certification credential. If you've taken Java Foundations training or the Java Coding and Concepts MOOC this is a great place to start.
If you've attended the Java Fundamentals training and had some hands on experience then the Java SE 8 Programmer I 1Z0-808 exam is a good choice.
And, if you create web-based user interfaces using JavaScript along with JSPs, JSFs, servlets and handle business logic or have taken the Developing Applications for the Java EE 7 Platform course then the Java EE 7 Application Developer 1Z0-900 exam is for you.
The difference between the Junior Associate and the Associate certification credential is experience. Take the Junior Associate if you haven’t gotten that needed experience yet.
Now that you know where to start its time to get ready for the exam.
First thing to do is to review Exam Topics. This gives you a detailed list on what you will be tested on. After reviewing the list you can determine what kind and how much additional help you need to prepare.

As a Solaris Kernel Engineer, I sought to expand my skills as took the Java Sys Admin Certification Course. After completing the course, a Java Mentor was required to confirm my knowledge. The Java Mentor refused check my knowledge and to allow me to become Certified because I currently do not take Java Service Requests as part of my current Job. Why offer Certification if I am not allowed to complete it?
