Google Trends - Web Search interest: "java certification", ocmjea - Worldwide, 2004 - present

Decline in interest shown in Google trends report for OCMJEA certification and its primarily due to Oracle mandating that people attend their course (which are very expensive - the cheapest one was $1950 for 3 days of Java EE 6 training conducted from India over the live web session). I wish Oracle pays heed to the developer communities and does not force them into paying for Java training but may consider upping the price for the certification by a bit.
