I've never found the need to get certified. In my mind, innovative real world experience will conquer all. Nothing beats a strong portfolio backed by well written logic.

It states that anyone can claim to be a ColdFusion expert and it is hard to to recognise legitimate expertise, and that the certification allows you to identify the real experts, blah blah blah. Certified ColdFusion Developer means that you can command the respect and recognition that goes along with being one of the best at what you do. blah blah blah, it will help you stick out from the crowd. LOL, what a crock, this is so contradictory. Using this study guide ANYONE can pass the exam, even the worst developer in the world, in fact there is a guy in my office here who did not know any Codlfusion at all, and passed the exam with an ADVANCED certification simply by reading the study guide. I wonder, do any employers actually give any consideration to people with one of these certifications? As they really arn't worth the paper they are printed on these days. -- Russ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:238922 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
