Well, it's quite cheap, so if you think it'll help, go ahead. I haven't met
the contracter who gave a damn.
You know what's frightening:
- 49% hold other certification credentials
LESS then a half of the participants have any certification whatsoever in
whatsoever....
In my experienxe contracters are looking for:
- either someone who can prove his experience by earlier projects,
- or (for the long term) someone with a finished IT eduction, in which case
they normally don't even care wther the person knows PHP at all, as it is
such an easy language to learn for someone with the proper prerequisites.
Unfortunately, I still don't know wether it expires. But hey: weird
thought: let's ask the people who give out the certification:
