want to give SCEA

[vaidehi Agate-keskar]

Hi All,

I am SCJP 5.0 certified and want to go for SCEA certification.What is the good study resource for preparation? Is there any good book avaialable or we have to study on our own? (Apart from javaranch forum)

Secondly how much of work exp needed to appear this exam? OF course i am not asking about eligibility criteria because i know afer scjp we can appear for any further exams. But memebers who are certified can tell me the advantage of their work exp.

Thanks in Advance.

Check out Humphrey's Blog. Looks like he's doing the update with Cade on the little SCEA book:

Blog on Updating SCEA Guide

Also, the SCEA5 guide is available on "Rough Cuts." It will likely be removed from here once it is officially released. Looks like you can get it in paperback, pdf, or both:

New SCEA5 Certification Guide

And here's a list of a few older books that I still think are helpful:

Alternate SCEA5 Study Material

Use the search feature for this forum and you'll find this similar discussion comes up quite a bit!

hey, I bought the membership for one month for 9$(5books - 5 slots), but it is not for rough cut books it seems. I have access to all other books, but not for this one.

Or may be I am missing something. I am not able to read the book, so now the only way to get the book is through this I guess,

paying Online, PDF and Print Book Bundle USD $53.98
Online and PDF Access USD $27.99
Print Book Pre-Order USD $27.99

If you bought it already you can put some light on my thoughts!
