Hello devs, I am very excited to announce the release of my new Udemy course, Java SE 11 Certification Practice Tests for the 1Z0-819 exam.

This is one of my dream projects which I have been working on since last year and one of the 3 goals I had set up for this year, along with Grokking the Spring Boot Interview and Grokking the Java Interview. This is also my first Java course on Udemy.

The course is a practice test that contains more than 250+ practice questions to prepare for Java SE 11 Developer certification or 1Z0-819 exam. If you are preparing for this certification then you can use these practice tests to check your preparation level, find your strong and weak areas and work upon them.

Java Developer certification is one of the prestigious certifications but this is very difficult to compare to previous Java certification like Java SE 8 Programmer I (OCAJP 8 - 1Z0-808) and Java SE 8 Programmer II (OCPJP 8 - 1Z0-809) and even if you are an experienced Java developer, it's very difficult to crack this exam without practice.

Not only it requires good knowledge of tricky topics like Modules and Concurrency but also you need to have speed and accuracy to solve all question on given time and that's where this Udemy course will help you.

This course contains 5 full-length, real exam-like practice tests, each containing 50 questions. You can take these practice tests in exam-like scenarios, I mean quiet room, timed test with no Google for help.

That's how I have used practice tests in the past and it certainly helps to gauge your preparation level, and here is the link to join my course for just $9.9 for the next 3 days - Java SE 11 Certification Practice Tests

How to prepare for Java SE 11 Developer Certification in depth

I have always said that passing an IT certification requires three things, a good course, a good book, and a nice practice test, and Java SE 11 certification (1Z0-819) is no different. If you want to pass this in-demand and prestigious Java certification on the first attempt, here are my recommended books, courses, and practice tests.

1. Java SE 11 Developer 1Z0-819 OCP Course - Part 1 and Part 2

This is an excellent preparatory course for Java programmers aiming for Java SE 11 Developer certification on Udemy. Created by Tim Buchalaka, one of my favorite Udemy instructors and author of the famous, The Complete Java Masterclass course, this course is specially prepared for the 1Z0-819 exam.

The course is divided into two parts and it is very well structured and covers all exam topics in good detail. Tim has also added quizzes after each module which is good to revise the exam topic and whatever you have learned in this section.

If you are preparing for the 1Z0-819 exam and need a complete course then I highly recommend this one, especially if you have worked in Java before and know Java basics. You can also buy this course for $10 or slightly more in Udemy sales which happen every now and then.

2. OCP Oracle Certified Professional Java SE 11 Developer Complete Study Guide

I didn't find any Java certification book which is especially covering Java SE 11 Developer certification with code 1Z0-819 but this book is the closest I got.

This book covers the previous version of this exam when you needed to pass two exams OCAJP and OCPJP to become a certified Java developer.

This book is still very good and covers most of the exam topics and if you go through the book you will be in good shape for this exam.
