Sun Certified Java Programmer Version 6 - Benefits

As one of the core enterprise technologies of the 21st century, using Java Technology to build applications is a critical skill for IT professionals.

Java Technology certification can benefit you professionally in several ways. It can:

  • Improve your career potential: improve opportunities for salary increases, job role changes and promotions
  • Enhance your professional credibility
  • Increase job security - More than two-thirds of certified professionals feel that technical certifications play a role in job security
  • Prove to employers that your qualifications/skills are up to date

For employers, getting your staff certified will improve their technical knowledge and enhance their ability to use the latest Version 6 Java Technology. In turn, this investment in your workforce can help you increase revenue and decrease costs by:

  • Increasing your employees' productivity, thereby decreasing time-to-market and giving your organisation a competitive advantage
  • Increasing service levels and reducing the risk of system failure
  • Ensuring that your employees have the required skills to meet your application development needs
  • Standardising your criteria for recruitment and/or for promoting employees
  • Increasing employee satisfaction and commitment to the business - and the likelihood that they will remain in their jobs
  • Increasing the credibility of your staff, and your business as a whole

Other accelerated training providers rely heavily on lecture and independent self-testing and study.

Effective technical instruction must be highly varied and interactive to keep attention levels high, promote camaraderie and teamwork between the students and instructor, and solidify knowledge through hands-on learning.

Firebrand Training provides instruction to meet every learning need, including

  • Intensive group instruction
  • One-on-one instruction attention
  • Hands-on labs
  • Lab partner and group exercises
  • Question and answer drills
  • Independent study

This information has been provided as a helpful tool for candidates considering certification. Benefits of certification determined through studies do not guarantee any particular personal successes. Firebrand Training provides a guarantee of obtaining certification at the camp, but does not make any guarantees about personal successes or benefits of obtaining certification.

Sun Certified Java Programmer Version 6 - Curriculum

Firebrand Training provides thorough instructor-led training to ensure that you learn the fundamentals and obtain hands-on skills. You will emerge able to immediately apply your new knowledge in your career environment.
