Hi guys.
Firstly, i'd like to introduce myself, I'm Pete from London (UK).
I joined this site as I really need your friendly advice (Ps - I have read the other posts)
1) I'm looking to take the OCA java SE 7 exam - 1Z0-803, are there any prerequisites? I'm NOT looking to become a programmer but need to understand the basics of OOP.
(This will help me at work when talking with developers).
The Oracle website states 'No prerequisites' are needed, however on another page they state "The OCA, Java SE 7 Programmer certification is designed for individuals who possess a strong foundation in the Java Programming language.
2) Is OCA SE 7 the entry level cert ?
3) I cant seem to find any training material - can anyone help?? there are a couple of books but are released later in the year. is epractize labs any good?
Are their any other books I can use? (e.g OCA se 6 etc).
4) I assume this exam can be taken at any Prometric test centre?
Many thanks guys,
Pete
