My advice to learn Java EE.

- Run JSP/Servlet programs
- Start reading EJB and JPA concepts
- Create small TABLE in MySQL and connect by JPA
- Use EJB to call JPA methods
- Call EJB in your Servlet/JSP to fetch/update values for the TABLE

Hope these basic steps helps you to start learning Java EE.

I don't think learning either EJBs or JSF is particularly worthwhile, unless you know you will use them. Both are on a downward trajectory IMO. JPA and Hibernate are good, as are various pieces of Spring (not all of it, though, it's HUGE these days). Knowing REST WS in the shape of JAX-RS would be very useful.

"It depends" is always the best answer. You should check the market and see what is required by the companies you would like to work for.

In our company we banned Spring over Java EE and we use EJB's in combination with CDI and JPA all the time. JAX-RS (and JAX-WS) can be done before or after learning about EJB's and JPA.
