Hello Java programmers, if you are preparing for OCP Oracle Certified Java SE 11 Developer Certification, or OCP 11 with code 1Z0-819 in 2021 and looking for the best resources like books, courses, and mock tests then you have come to the right place.
In this article, I have shared a few of my favorite resources to prepare for 1Z0-819 certification exam. You may not know but now you can become Oracle Certified Java Developer by passing just one exam, instead of two exams like Oracle Certified Java Associate Exam and Oracle Certified Java Professional Exam.
This is a really big relief and that's the reason many Java developers are thinking to become certified Java developers in 2021.
By the way, 1Z0-819 or OCP 11 Java 11 Developer certification is one of the prestigious certifications but this is very difficult to compare to previous Java certifications 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 these resources will help you.
3 Best Books, Courses, and Practice Test for Oracle Certified Java Developer Exam in 2021
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.
