Hi Jim,
Is there any point to getting the SCAA certification. I have never
thought that it is worth bothering about. Each job I have seen
requires the SCJP certification. As you know I love Thinking in Java.

Subject: Java Certification Question
Hi,
I was told today to begin to study to get ready for two Java
certifications, the Sun Java Certified Associate (SCJA) and the Sun
Certified Java Programmer (SCJP). I have the books I will be using
for the SCJP. I also have other material that I can use. I'm
specifically interested in any accessible material that I can use to
study for the SCJA. I found a book on Amazon that has great reviews,
but of course, it would be beautiful to find an accessible version
of that one, or some other book like it. On the blind
programming and other lists, I've seen people recommend Thinking In
Java. I know of the Java material on nonvisualdevelopment.org. As an
accessibility accommodation where I consult, I have a subscription
to Safari. But they don't seem to have a study book for the SCJA.
Thanks for any help, and is it OK to wine and cry when I really
start getting into how OO works? I promise not to swear on list. <grin>
