[edit] Master merge

I've merged all the SCP-related articles to there. Quarl (talk) 2006-01-13 03:07Z

[edit] Statistics

I'd like to see some statistics that correlate years of experience with the different certifications (i.e. A programmer would generally have around 2 years work experience before taking the SCJP). Also, it would be nice if there were some stats that can indicate an expected increase in earnings for each certification. I googled around for a bit, but not much luck.

From merge:

J2EE certification program
Sun announced in July 2002 a Java Verification Program for testing enterprise applications to ensure their compatibility with all :application server software products that comply with the J2EE (Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition) standard.
See also: Matrix of Application Servers

This is not relevant to java certification. At best a link on J2EE to here could be added, but this definately does not belong in this article. Chiok 17:13, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Update Suggestions:

Will this site add infomation on certs such as the SCSA and the years of experience with SUN networks such certs represent?

Are there any references to affirm certification currency such as many other certification bodies also do?

[edit] Moved pending source

I've moved the following from the article pending a reliable source:

The SCJD is a useful member in the teams, creating distributed desktop applications and should be able to write such systems or their parts, without additional supervision. Even employers that are sceptical enough not to count the SCJP at all, still count SCJD as equal to the two years of the practical work in the serious programming industry [1][citation needed].
