Terry,

For the learning the basics (and I mean VERY basics) you may be better
off
with a text editor and a command line.  This way you can learn about
things
like the classpath, the compiler, packages, etc from a very low/basic
level.
 From there it depends on what you are doing.  For basic desktop/GUI
apps I
would suggest Netbeans for its  visual designer.  For anything Google
related (App Engine, GWT, Android, etc) I would suggest Eclipse.  For
web
applications either one will work rather well.

I have heard good things about IntelliJ but I have little first hand
experience with it.

I've never been much of a certification fan.  I say let your open source
projects speak for themselves ;)
