just learning core Java, Servlets, Java Servers, BlazeDS, and Spring. Can you suggest a source for learning them that would be most applicable for Flex?
Also,... Any idea of the time required for most for this? Like how would it compare to an Oracle Cert for example? Weeks, Months or Years?

I would suggest just learning core Java, Servlets, Java Servers, BlazeDS, and Spring. After that decide if you care about getting certified. Tom suggested learning CF instead. I would not recommend that. I know CF and Java and I would never use CF for a Flex backend. Java is so much nicer to work with and so much more powerful.

Thanks Dan Pride
