Hi Listers,
The National Federation has just won a huge law suit against the California Bar
Association which allows test takers to take in their assistive technology. I
know Jim Corbett didn't get finished with the test but got so many correct that
he passed. At the rate I am going I don't expect to be that lucky. I use both
Jaws and the Focus Braille display. I would hate to go into this big
certification and have to use a strange reader. Anyway this is simply great.

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>
