Are Certifications Important

Certifications still have a place in the educational environment and in business. However, they can only take you so far when it come to lack of knowledge in the field or pay for a position. In some cases you will need more knowledge or a degree in the field to back up the certification. Many schools are adding certification options as a way to bust their student numbers with the hope that you will see the value in a degree program. Let me say, there is value in a degree. Not everyone will see it that why however. Seeing value in a degree when you to spend money on the degree, hold some negative feelings for some people. Knowing what degree to obtain is a personal choice. When you send money on school the biggest concern is will I make that money when looking for a job. I like to work backwards. Research what job you want and what is offered for salary or pay and then decide what you need in the way of eduction.
