Topic: "SAGE Certification"
Abstract:
Lois Bennett will present an overview of the SAGE Certification
program to date and share some of the plans for the future. Followed
by a lively discussion of the pros and cons of certification in
general and SAGE Certification specifically.
SAGE Certification is a multi-platform program created by and for
system administrators. The program came into existence through SAGE
as a response to industry demands for vigorous, job-specific
evaluation. Certification of system administration professionals is a
growing industry, and the purpose of SAGE certification is to enhance
the professional standing and technical rigor of system
administrators. SAGE certification represents the highest quality
professional examination that is practically oriented and focuses on
both core competence as well as specific system administration tasks.
The testing is of merit to system administrators, and as such, SAGE
Certification is a distinctive certification program for system
administrators.
