Thanks for your thoughts :) Propably I´d rather take the exam in Flash MX than MX 04, just because MX does not have a year in it ;) It´s the same with Windows: Everyone would agree that Windows 2000 is "old". But would you call Windows XP "old"? Propably not, until I tell you that it was released in 2001 ;)
I got the preparation book today and took the online test. 60% correct without even looking into it isn´t too bad I think. I probably take the test anyway, looks good in the CV at least ;) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Eskil Janson Sent: Saturday, August 12, 2006 5:58 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Madobe certified professional - still recommend? I passed the test a year ago, at the time when Flash 8 was just released, and it seemed strange alreade at that time to study outdated concepts(primarely related to AS1 ) ... But most of the basic stuff is the same for both products. Most of your clients, or students if you teach Flash, won't be able to tell the difference between the versions (MX2004, 8) , but some of them will probably be interested in the fact that you have the highest level of certification for the product (Flash) before they consider hiring you. I think Adobe should get a grip on the certification and training situation for Flash. I personally really like AS3 and I can't understand why Adobe (formerly MM) never have tried to design courses targeted to real professionals, including real OOP, since that makes developing Flash so much easiser, and is what everybody is into. This should also be reflected in the courses they provide to prepare for the exam, and the exam itself. /Eskil André Goliath skrev: > Hello List, > > I´m thinking about becoming a certifed Macromedia(?)
