Course Description

Becoming Java certified is a great way to help improve your career options with more job opportunities and more pay.
That's because Oracle's Java certification program, unlike many other certifications out there, has real value in the industry. One of the main reasons is that it's an official Oracle certification, but second, the exam is quite difficult to pass.
Employers see programmers who are Java certified as more valuable than programmers who are not certified. So it's totally worth getting Java certified to take advantage of this.
This course has been designed to pass on the exact knowledge you need to pass Oracle's 1Z0-819 exam.
So what exam does this course cover?
This course focuses on the Java SE 11, 1Z0-819 exam, from Oracle. It's Part 1 of a 2-course series. It's highly recommended that you complete Part 2 of my 1Z0-819 exam course after completing this one. Oracle helpfully publishes the complete list of topics that questions in the exam come from. I've taken extreme care to ensure that a full 100% of the material you need to know, in order to pass the exam is covered in either this course or Part 2.
There are only two courses you need to getJava certified, this one, and my Part 2.
I won't waste your time on any Java features that are not going to come up as a question on the exam. Why Get Certified in Java 11, aren't there newer versions available?
Java 11 is designated as the LTS or Long Term Support version of Java - it's going to be supported by Oracle and JDK vendors until at least 2026, unlike Java 9, Java 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, etc all of which are no longer supported by Oracle. Large companies have large codebases, and it takes them a long time to upgrade that code to new versions of Java - for years Java 8 was the main version used by companies, and with the release of Java 11, and Oracle's commitment to supporting it for many years as well as them designating it as the long term support version, this means that the majority of the industry will be moving, or already have moved to Java 11. Particularly now that Java 8 support is ending soon.
Oracle does not have a certification program for Java 9, 10, 12, or Java 13, etc. This is by design. Because Java 11 is Oracle's long term supported version of Java. For this reason, Java 11 is the version of Java you need to become certified in. And this course will help you achieve that.
What's the difference between this course and your Part 2 1Z0-819 exam course?
Firstly, the courses have completely different content, there is pretty much no overlap of content in the two courses. Think of this course as the "Core Java" concepts, and my Part 2 course, as the "Advanced" content. Both courses are targeted for the 1Z0-819 exam and help you to pass it. Why are there two courses for the 1Z0-819 exam?
In October 2021, Oracle decided to move from their old exams, the 1Z0-815 and 1Z0-816 to a single exam, the 1Z0-819. The thing is, the 1Z0-819 exam, still targets the exact same topics that were in the old 1Z0-815 and 1Z0-816 exams, minus a few topics that have removed.
Previously you needed to pass both exams to get Java certified. Now, you only need to pass the 1Z0-819 exam. So that's a bonus for you.
This Part 1 course originally targeted the 1Z0-815 exam, and my other just released Part 2 course, was originally going to target the 1Z0-816 exam. What I've done now is updated and renamed both courses, and ensured they are both targeting the material you need to pass the new 1Z0-819.
Hopefully, that makes sense as to why you need to take two courses.
Do I really need to take a "Java exam course" to pass the exam?
Being completely upfront, it is possible to pass the exam without studying a specific exam course like this one. But it's not easy. Keep in mind that the exam does not just test your knowledge of Java, but actively tries to trip you up by asking questions that sometimes use obscure, rarely used syntax that you may never have come across before. The sorts of things that most Java courses or textbooks will never teach you.
This course shows you all the standard Java stuff you need to know, as well as this more obscure stuff to ensure you really are ready to pass the exam.
Who is this course suitable for?
If you have been through at least some of my Java Masterclass on Udemy, or another Java course and/or have some professional programming experience in Java or another programming language then this course is for you. This course is definitely NOT for beginner programmers. If you are a beginner, you will struggle with this course. In that case, grab my Java Masterclass and go through all or a significant amount of that course before attempting this one.
You don't teach Java in this course?
That's right, I don't teach you Java as such. The course assumes you know Java, and are looking for the knowledge to pass the exam. It's a subtle but important distinction.
And remember, the course only focuses on topics that may come up as a question in the 1Z0-819 exam.
Yes, you will learn a ton of new things by going through this course. But I do assume you know Java, and won't waste your time by having you watch me type in code. Rather, I paste in a code snippet, explain its purpose, and execute it. This is the best way to pass on the required knowledge to me. As an aside, theIt's designed to give you the exact information and skills you need to pass Oracle's Java 11 1Z0-819 exam.
If you already have Java 7 or Java 8 certification and want to upgrade your skills to Java 11, this is for you.
The great thing about the course is that it's relatively short (at least compared to my almost 80 hour Java Masterclass), so it's great if you need to cram before taking the exam.
What this course is not.
This course is not a "rebadged" Java 8 Certification course - the 1Z0-819, Java 11 certification is a lot different from the 1Z0-808 (Java 8) exam(for starters it covers many features not included in Java 8, a few of which are listed above).
If you only have Java 8 experience it's going to be pretty hard for you to pass the Java 11 exam. You need to be up to speed with Java 11 features (as well as the older stuff) and that's what you will learn in this course.
I created this course, from scratch, in Java 11 to give you the tools you need to pass Oracle's 1Z0-819 exam (formally the 1Z0-815 and 1Z0-816 exams).
Who Am I?
My name is Tim Buchalka, a professional software developer with close to 40 years of experience, starting out with Java way back in the 1990s. I am the creator of the biggest and most comprehensive Java course on Udemy, the Java Masterclass which has been a best seller for many years and has close to 500,000 students and literally tens of thousands of glowing reviews.
I'd like to think I know a thing or two about Java!
You can be assured that the quality of the course is second to none and that the information contained in it will help you pass the 1Z0-819 exam.

His video courses are used to train developers in major companies such as Mercedes-Benz, Paypal, VW, Pitney Bowes, IBM, and T-Mobile just to name a few (via the Udemy for Business program).

What makes Tim unique is his professional programming career - many instructors have never programmed professionally, let alone had a distinguished professional development career like Tim.

Tim has trained over 831,000 students how to program, way more than a typical ITProfessor at a college does in a lifetime.

In fact, Tim's courses are often purchased by students struggling to get through college programming courses.
"I am learning a lot about Java very quickly. I wish my college courses worked this way, they drag the same amount of material out over months." - Thomas Neal

"I love this guy. I'm in school for java right now at a local college and I bought this course hoping it would help clarify the fuzzy areas of my coursework. There's no comparison. Every time I get lost in my textbook, I watch a couple more of these videos and I'm right back on track. He explains everything so perfectly. It sinks right in." - Kristen Andreani

"Tim is a great instructor, I have more courses from him and all are great. This one really helped me with my understanding of Java from the very beginnings. In fact

Oui

By Dhruv Nargund on 11/21/2020

I'd like a few more questions per quiz and more quizzes per topic and lecture
Otherwise, the instructor is very knowledgeable and a good teacher

By Sean Worrall on 11/14/2020

A good course that is very in depth covering half of the topics on the exam, however a lot of these videos are very rushed and not fully explained. Often it's just a copy and paste of some code (which is fine) but then the codes just run and then moved onto the next part, most of the time there is no explanation of the result from the code, you have to keep pausing the video just to read the code or output sometimes.
Would be a much better course if it didn't feel so rushed.

By Michael Justus on 11/14/2020

I enjoy the communication skill of the presenter: they talk well and do not drone on and on; rather the conversation tone is engaging. That said, the course contents covered is spot on in getting an understanding of Java and preparation for certification. Following through the pasted code examples, though, does tend to go a little too quickly at times. At those moments in time, it's best to pause and unpause to keep in-step with the presenter. Overall, well presented and highly enjoyable.

By Bradley Quangson on 11/14/2020

I've taken the Java 8 SE exam a few years ago and I'm planning to take the new 1z0-819 Java 11 SE exam soon. This course was a fantastic review that covers not only the basics, but it also covers subtleties on every single topic. It was humbling to do and also reassuring to learn about. There are little quizzes throughout, they're all good test questions and can be tricky. The course does use actual Java code that is provided for you as resources so you can follow along. I do recommend following along with Tim. If you've got the time, it would probably better to look at the code first, then start the video. Overall, I feel really confident with this first part, and I'm looking forward to part 2.

Copy pasting and running the code to explain java concepts is such a poor way of teaching. Definitely going to get my money back. I am disappointed.

By Tatiana Igumnova on 11/7/2020

The further it gets the quicker are examples reviewed and sometimes just barely shown. The code is zoomed so much that you only see a few lines, even though a modern pc can easily show more lines per screen so that one don't have to constantly switch between downloaded code and video.

By Mario Banay on 11/7/2020

The Course is well organised and easy to follow. Audio and video quality are great. Thanks Tim!

By Claudomiro de Souza Nascimento Junior on 10/24/2020

Acess to the couse source code if fundamentall because the instructor use it a lot.

By Alex Franka on 10/11/2020

Too much pasting code here and there that doesn't even get explained properly
I find myself going to YouTube constantly to get a real explanation of a concept.
Instructor repeats himself over and over, as in the case of the bitwise operators video where all he does is paste code and proceed to let users know in each statement, why the purpose of a incremental operator... over and over and over
I'd rather see one single solid explanation of code, explored deeper than ten statements pasted w/o explanation whatsoever

By Vidyaprasad S on 10/7/2020

The explanation was good and helpful.

By Ernesto Flores Romero on 10/5/2020

The course content is great! I think content on this course catches all tricky question we can face on Java certification exam... But it's a little complicated to understand code according to the way is explained on videos, I mean, course instructor just copy-paste and execute code quickly and sometimes is not explained all class outputs... Even sometimes there is no chance to view all source code being executed on video.
I think instructor should have a puse to explain every program output with source code, that's will be great!
