He moved to Sun Microsystems, Inc. in mid-1995 and almost immediately became the leading Java instructor in the U.K. In 1998, Simon moved to Colorado, where he still lives. While at Sun, he created the Sun Certified Programmer, Developer, and Architect certifications, and worked in teams on several other certifications. He has written three books on Java, including two certification study guides: one covering the Programmer and Developer exams, and one covering the Architect exam.
