My question this time is not related to a concrete programming problem, but i think still ok to post it here.

I think is more than 4 years since JSF technology came out, as an alternative for JSP but today still there is no JSF certification.

I don't understand what is the reason? I love java programming and not long ago i started to discover JSF and its easiness to create web UI, with lots of gadgets and fun stuff. Now i start to feel affraid to be learning a born death technology. I hope i am worng and somtime soon the cert for JSF comes out.

I saw the cert catalog of oracle, they have JSP&Servlets, but they dont have JSF What do you think about that? Any news?

No they do not have and there is not even a beta exam for that (it was but is retired). A new one is JPA exam.

I don't understand, see there are sites like this one http://www.epractizelabs.com/certification/sun/jsf-ocp-exam.html that offer training, and some other sites say that the exam code is this: CX-311-086 but oracle says nothing about that. :( – sfrj Jul 1 '11 at 21:28
yes it was a beta exam that now is retired..."19.03.2011 Brandye Barrington wrote: Regarding the JSF exam, it is still in development. It was posted because we thought we had a production date for the beta exam but the exam ran into some issues, so we had to remove it. You can expect to see this beta exam show back up sometime in the future. " from some oracle blog blogs.oracle.com/certification/entry/0520 – Cris Jul 1 '11 at 21:34
