Considering Java certification

As one of my new year resolutions I promised myself that I'd get some sort of technical certification this year. Basically what I'm interested in is the Java Programmer Certification, Web Component Developer Certification and Enterprise Architect Certification. For the three certifications I've found the following prep literature:

  • SCJP Sun Certified Programmer for Java 5 Study Guide (Exam 310-055): Study Guide Exam 310-055 (Certification Press) - Link
  • Sun Certified Web Component Developer Study Guide (Exam 310-081) - Link
  • Sun Certified Enterprise Architect for Java EE Study Guide (Exam 310-051): Study Guide Exam 310-051 (Certification Press) - Link

On the project management side I'm considering the Scrum Master Certification or Prince 2 Certification.

Any recommendation?

What you do, stay away from the "Head First" certification preparation books. Full of errors and typos, lack information etc. etc.
For my certifications, I relied heavily on the topics list from Sun and appropriate specification documents (like Servlet and JSP specifications for the SCWCD exam).
Good luck!

Hi

I think certification is best for any student who are reading and I think every student will be prepare for this examination.
