Is Java Certification Worth It?

Is Java Certification Worth It?
Is it really worth getting Java-certified? Certifications can be expensive for some people and I often get asked if it's really worth every buck. I'll discuss more about that in today's video. Please keep on watching!
Here are some links mentioned in this video:
Oracle Java Certification - Pass the Associate 1Z0-808 Exam:
lpa.dev/jcvideo-oracle-cert/yt
Java Programming Masterclass for Software Developers:

My name is Tim Buchalka and I have put together a series of videos which I call the "Programming Tip of the Day". And basically, each video goes through talking about some of the pitfalls and things that you'll need to overcome to succeed as a programmer, things like overcoming frustration and keeping yourself motivated.
In this series I will also answer common questions about choosing a programming language to learn, questions about your career path and things of that nature. Now there's a lot of other things as well that I'll cover in these videos and I'm also opening the lines for you to tell me what you want me to cover.
Now I've been a programmer for over 35 years so I think I'm real qualified to answer a lot of these questions. So if you do have a question, pop the question in the comments section of this video and I'll do my best to address that in a future video.

One question though, it seems that there are a couple of exams that need to be taken to get to the Oracle Certified Professional: Java SE 11 Developer exam, i.e. Oracle Certified Associate > Oracle Certified Professional, Java SE 8 Programmer. My question is, does the master class cover all the content needed to pass all 3 exams or will the Master class only cover up to the first or maybe second exam? Thanx

    Hi Tim! I have been watching your videos since the beginning of this year. I have already enrolled your other courses regarding Data Structures & Algorithms and Design Patterns. My aim is to finish all of your course within 6 months and by the end of the this year hopefully to get a certificate from Java. What I would like to ask on this stage is that when I searched the exam details related to Java 11, there seems to be two exams "Java SE 11 Programmer I | 1Z0-815" and "Java SE 11 Programmer II | 1Z0-816". Is it an obligation to pass those two in order to be certificated? For Java EE on which I want to work further, is it acceptable to get Java SE 11 Certification or only Java EE Certification should be taken into account?

I am planning on taking the Java 11 certification course, but I would like to know, if I complete the entire video course and get a grip on the concepts taught here, will this alone enable me to bag the certification? Should I buy a book as well(For example, a book by Herbert Schildt) to further enable me to do the same? BTW, Thanks for the great courses on Udemy! Keep rocking! Thanks.

    I hate stuff like this a lot. It seems to only test your ability to remember and regurgitate info, the same issue schools have. And what if you cheat? You mean look up answers? The ability to google stuff that is taught as important as a dev because you won't ever be able to remember everything? Isn't this counter productive? Not to mention from the test questions I have seen most of them will be auto corrected and fixed by an IDE anyway so it feels even more like a waste of time realistically, but nope it has a big price tag so now it's worth something.
