How Safe Is the Cloud?
I have been asked often times Amazon Solutions Architect, "Is getting vendor certified worth all the problem?" And I have been quietly of not getting certified, just for the reason why that I am an engineer who's not certified. Sure, I have done well with no credentials, but I am starting to come around that having your certification is a necessity for almost any Information Technology profession either beginning or continuing their career in this industry.
Here are 4 reasons becoming a certified Information Technology professional.
Many employers require the certification
I am not alone that has been overlooked for a position as a result of proven fact that I do not hold a vendor certification. Employers need to know that the individual has both the knowledge and the knowledge to get the job done effectively, with little or no supervision. And employers are willing to pay for great salaries to those experts who continue steadily to certify and grow their knowledge base during their career. So don't just get one certification. Look to keep testing to higher levels.
Certifying will help you to become a well-rounded professional
I once believed that I possibly could learn everything on the task and get by. But after being on the market for over 15 years, I have learned that what I do know is strongly related my current position. If I was to be on and move to another position, I would struggle because my knowledge base isn't at an even that will make the transition a smooth one. The data that I could have obtained might have filled those holes that I have to create me a much better well-rounded engineer within my field.
Would you want an unlicensed/uncertified doctor operating on you?
Well, this is something that will scare me if I was to go under the knife. It really makes sense an IT professional be certified as a way showing they can do the job. Customers may be hesitant to buy IT services when they realize that the IT professionals they are buying services from are not certified professionals. And this may be another reason that employers may demand certified professionals.
Getting certified is a good way to create a career change
Getting certified in a brand new IT field is a great solution to re-invent your career. Someone might be looking to create a move from the routing and switching field to a cloud-computing field. Getting a new certification in the cloud-computing field would have been a great way to create that jump. Also, new professionals to the Information Technology industry may become certified by studying for the test and passing. There's no requirement in terms of experience to take an access level exam.
