All IT job seekers, advance level exam completers, undergraduates and graduates who are interested in the field of software development are eagerly looking forward to become a professional software engineer or developer. At the same time parents of those are also waiting until their beloved ones become professionals in this newly upcoming computer job market with high scale salaries and other benefits. The main reason for this is because they all know IT professionals are respected by the society and at the same time their monthly salaries are above the salary levels of same aged and experienced non professionals in all the other fields.
In this phenomenon, having a clear idea about the professionalism relevant to software development is very important. Basically, a professional software engineer should have three major components. Those are methodical theoretical knowledge earned with a recognized theory certification, software development skill developed through a practical training and experience gained through developing software solutions for real business entities.
What are the qualifications available in Information Technology? Qualifications are mainly in two categories; academic qualifications and professional qualifications. Basically any university around the globe focuses mainly on academic qualifications especially in the field of information technology. There is nothing wrong in that because universities exist for the purpose of disseminating the universal knowledge in a particular field. Ethically a university has no right to focus only on one subject in the IT field, being majority of the IT subjects belongs to private companies. For instance, a university cannot focus only on Microsoft’s Visual Basic subject to produce professionals in that particular subject. University education needs to cater to all other programming subjects also, equally, to create a non biased environment for all subject content providers. Due to this situation, universities are limited to train students only for academic qualifications. Having academic qualifications alone is not sufficient to succeed or at least to survive in the IT job market. At least to get into the first job, having academic qualifications is not sufficient today.
Having a Professional qualification is the solution for this situation. PCJT stands for Professional Certificate in Java Technology. Information Technology interested parents and students both can gain complete benefit of knowing the advantages of PCJT professional qualification only when they have a capacity to compare PCJT qualification with academic qualifications in the field of information technology.
PCJT focuses only to specialize a student for the Java subject, which is the world’s most updated programming language and technology. Java is the programming language used by NASA for Mars exploration satellite and Mars Rover mission. Not only that, but Java is the programming language for future mobile devices like mobile phones and PDA computers. The upcoming mCommerce market will be driven based on Java Technology.
PCJT syllabus will be covered in two semesters. The syllabus contains all three major areas which are practical, theory and experience to become a real professional in the Java J2SE knowledge area. In the first semester, the practical software development project is developed with a real business client for students to get the industry placement experience and the exposure. The other major component of the first semester is the architectural design project for ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) application. In the second semester of the PCJT program, students are trained to sit for the internationally recognized examination delivered by the Sun Microsystems USA (SCJP) who is the owner of the Java programming language. This certification is accepted for USA Visa purposes too.
At the end of the PCJT program, students are specialized in J2SE area in Java technology and they become professionals in Java technology.
Specialization of a particular subject and getting professional qualifications is important not only in information technology, but also for accounting, law, marketing and other fields too. He said the Java field is special because it pays very high salaries for qualified professionals. He also stated that in Sri Lanka there is a huge trend in acquiring Java based professional qualifications before acquiring any academic qualifications just after the Advance Level. He predicted that this trend will lead to a dramatic soft technology development in Sri Lanka discretion in the near future.
I don't know wheter you are the real Ishantha sir or not !
Because everyone can take a fake ID. I think in the internet all over the world there are 5 fake Ishantha Sir profiles.
Allright sir , I am a student of IJTS , but didn't feelz anything smart or special in the IJTS. Yes the pratical knowledge you can obtain freely with contribution to a
opensource project. And the interests all around the world and the forums and newsgroups will help you max. And inside the IJTS you can only learn java. One
type of rubber ball assemble chain in a factory. So supply vx demand , so how can you gurantee a high valuable job profile for a java side ? Now there is more supply than the demand for the java. Even if you did the higest exam in the SUN java side you can't get a job that you demand. Salaries are ranges from 10,000 to 15000 for a java higest one. well that's due to the huge supply.
However learning java is good. I completely learn the object oriented software development and techiniques inside the time that I learning in the IJTS , and thanks to the IJTS. And if you remember me you give up a fee semanir for us.
And I am the one who ask the first question on that semanir , I think you can
remember me. Allright sir this is not a exercise to attack to you. But I had to tell
the truth because there are thousands of smart kids over there who comes to the internet to just for the computer + programming interests . They are different some are likes java and some are not. some are likes C even not C++.
you have learnet C++ well , and I personally knew that. so you can't do that.
Don't change someones life , C++ may be their life and java may be you're life.
don't change their life to java cos just to earn money , instead IJTS should do a great service to the country. try Not something take from country give something to the country.
However sir that's what I believe for a java interested one what I believe is wrong. what I believe is also true. Don't do this again. There is a different world
in computing and Computing is not the 100% java , and for a smart kid joining the IJTS doesn't return anything he alrady can join a opensource community freely with no cost . and sir when you charging the money you are responsible to make them skilled ! In our batches yes you did you're job you did a job but
I can't say that's a service. there is a difference between job and the service.
