I have being called for an training program for application development for Force.com. Since I am looking forward to work in a java based development environment, will it help me as a java developer in the future?
Apex itself is based on Java, however syntax and some classes aside the style of programming is quite different in nature as it’s more like web development than standalone application development.
Furthermore, even though Eclipse is the SDK of choice, you don’t really use it as anything more than a glorified text editor, and one where auto-complete etc. regularly fail at that. It will help you practice coding and experience is always one of the best teachers, but with regards to general application development the amount of help it will provide is limited.
Cheers,
Matt
