Hello,
I did like to know what you think about the postgresql certifications
provided for
PostgreSQL CE
http://www.sraoss.co.jp/postgresql-ce/news_en.html
CertFirst
http://www.certfirst.com/postgreSql.htm
My question is about the validate of this certification for the clients.
Make difference to be certified?
IMHO, the SRA certification has been around for awhile, and I believe it
has some credibility in Japan...While I'm not sure what its credibility
is like here in the US - the fact that it has credibility in Japan is a
big plus .
The CertFirst certification (examsonline.com), seems to be administered
online (as opposed to SRA's which is at a PearsonVUE test center) -
which basically means that it's open book, open note, call your friend,
copy the questions, etc. It also seems that CertFirst runs the
certification themselves under what appears to be a shell company called
"examsonline". It looks to be more of a marketing ploy than anything
else....
Based on the fact that they are a provider of training under the WIA act
in IL, I'd suspect that they need a certification so that they can sell
their programs to the unemployed folks that are getting free training on
the gov'ts dime.
thanks for advanced.
Ivo Nascimento.
