To move your career forward as a Java developer, you need the credibility that only advanced Java certifications can provide. The most prestigious Java credential – the “Oracle Certified Master, Java EE 6 Enterprise Architect” – proves that you possess the skills and knowledge to execute Java application development at an enterprise level.
This exam is for enterprise architects responsible for architecting and designing Java Platform, Enterprise Edition technology-compliant applications that are scalable, flexible, and highly secure.
This exam is designed for candidates with experience in the following areas (typically 5 or more years: Application design: concepts and principles, common architectures, integration and messaging, business-tier technologies, web-tier technologies, Java EE technology, patterns, and security).
Large enterprise organizations, with their many critical applications and systems, need people with proven skills. These companies are looking for well-trained and highly experienced specialists to architect their systems, define requirements and oversee execution. And as employers, they want proof that their employees are fully prepared to execute critical functions.
Playing a vital role in Java-related projects, the Enterprise Architect is involved from beginning to end: analyzing and defining requirements, creating blueprints for robust enterprise applications and overseeing accurate execution. As a part of the certification process, certified Java Enterprise Architects are required to demonstrate a wide range of skills that extend well beyond fundamental Java programming.
Getting certified in Java makes you more valuable to your current/future employer.
