MCSE Training: $7200
MCSE Certification: $540
MCSE logo on your resume: $0
Getting a job because of the logo: +$60,000/year
The look on your fellow techicians face when you don’t know how to login to an NT workstation: Priceless
There are some things money can't buy. For everything else, there's MasterCard. Accepted everywhere, even at Microsoft.
Ha ha ha ha ha, that's hilarious. You should make that a topic on the lounge board, you'd get 6000 posts per day. I'm hoping you were one of the techs with the look on your face, no the poor MCSE grad.
Yet another (sad but true) comment on the state of M$ certification...
If only it wasn't true!
I am Network Manager in a hospital (can you say "stress"?) where I oversee 30 servers.
No certification, but I did attend classes. I'm not saying there's no value to it, but nothing beats experience.
One candidate came fresh out of school with his certification, intending to replace me and overhaul our network. He did not even make it to the server room.
Why be this arrogant or *****ious if you can't back it up with skills?!
Moved to Tech Lounge as I feel it is more appropriate here than in Certification.
Ya know, that does about sum up things for some of the MCSE's I've seen.
hmm.. note to self.. get job as junior server monkey... learn how to do all the stuff they dont teach during mcse.. then go get my mcse. then blow the minds of all the experienced techs when i know how to login in to NT
Sometimes pros are the people who know the least about comps...hehe
That perfectly describes the MCSE I work with, and it infuriates me no end.
The old Motto applies:-
'Knowing what to do & doing what you know are two completely different things'
.....so? how DO you log into NT?Quote:

Too bad MSCE's have lost there value. To many "paper MCSE's". You spend lots of money on people to teach you how to "pass" it, but you don't know jack $hit.
MCSE dosent mean anything except you know have to take a test....
Paying for someone to teach you how to take the MSCE tests. $7200

Getting fired because you don't even know what MCSE stands for. Priceless!
