Persistence.
Experimentation.
Documentation reading.
Thinking.
These are all the fundamental technical skills required to learn any piece of software.
There are so many different choices on how to do things in IIB that "learning IIB" by itself is a small(ish) job. You need to learn three things: how to model data, how to construct a flow, how to deal with exceptions.

An ability to read the product documentation, which has been absent from some of the MQ queries you've posted here in the past.
Intermediate to advanced programming skills in Java or a procedural language (which maps to ESQL coding).
An acceptance that, even if you code in Java, IIB is not WAS or any other kind of Java server.
A willingness to work through the supplied samples and reverse engineer how they work.

Also...
- XML and XML Schema
- character encodings, Unicode and EBCDIC
- the difference between a logical item of data and its physical representation. |

if you plan to develop API's in a REST/JSON "fashion" make shure you understand how the http protocol works (http verbs - get/post, uri ,request data, request body etc)
