What could a trainee searching for certified training from Microsoft expect to come across? Undoubtedly, companies should give access to a range of different options that cover the portfolio of training tracks certified by Microsoft.
You may wish to review all your options with an advisor who is on familiar terms with the commercial demands for IT staff, and can influence your choice of the most fruitful career to match your character.
When you've chosen the area you want to get into, your next search is for a relevant course personalised to be right for your current level of knowledge and ability. Your study program should more than match your expectations.
Think about the facts below and pay great regard to them if you're inclined to think that old marketing ploy of an 'Exam Guarantee' sounds great value:
Thankfully, today we have to be a bit more aware of hype - and usually we grasp that it is something we're paying for - it's not because they're so generous they want to give something away!
Qualifying on the first 'go' is what everyone wants to do. Going for exams one by one and paying as you go puts you in a much stronger position to qualify at the first attempt - you take it seriously and are conscious of what you've spent.
Sit the exam somewhere close to home and look for the very best offer you can at the time.
Is there a good reason to pay interest on a bigger loan than is necessary because you've paid early for examinations when you didn't need to? Huge profits are made by companies getting paid upfront for exams - and then cashing in when they're not all taken.
Additionally, many exam guarantees are worthless. The majority of companies won't be prepared to pay again for an exam until you can prove to them you're ready to pass.
With average prices for VUE and Pro-metric tests in the United Kingdom costing around 112 pounds, by far the best option is to pay for them as you take them. There's no sense in throwing away maybe a thousand pounds extra at the start of your studies. Commitment, effort and practice with quality exam preparation systems are the factors that really get you through.
Searching for your first position in IT can be a little easier if you're offered a Job Placement Assistance service. It can happen though that too much is made of this feature, as it's really not that difficult for well qualified and focused men and women to secure a job in the IT environment - because companies everywhere are seeking trained staff.
Update your CV at the beginning of your training though (advice and support for this should come from your course provider). Don't delay until you've qualified.
You'll often find that you'll land your first position whilst you're still studying (even in the early stages). If your course details aren't on your CV - or it's not getting in front of interviewers, then you aren't even in the running!
If you'd like to keep travelling time and costs to a minimum, then it's quite likely that an independent and specialised local employment service might be of more use than a centralised service, as they're far more likely to have insider knowledge of the local job scene.
Many men and women, apparently, put a great deal of effort into their studies (for years sometimes), and then just stop instead of attempting to secure a job. Market yourself... Make an effort to put yourself out there. Don't think a job's just going to jump out in front of you.
There are colossal changes about to hit technology over the next few decades - and it only gets more exciting every day.
Computer technology and communication on the internet is going to spectacularly shape the direction of our lives in the future; to a vast degree.
Let's not ignore salaries also - the income on average in Great Britain for a typical man or woman in IT is noticeably more than in the rest of the economy. It's a good bet that you'll earn a whole lot more than you could reasonably hope to get in other industries.
The good news is there's not a hint of a downturn for IT expansion in Great Britain as a whole. The market continues to grow enormously, and with the skills shortage of over 26 percent that we're experiencing, it's not likely that it will even slow down for a good while yet.
How the program is actually delivered to you is usually ignored by most students. In what way are your training elements sectioned? What is the specific order and do you have a say in when you'll get each part?
Usually, you'll enrol on a course requiring 1-3 years study and receive a module at a time. While this may sound logical on one level, consider this:
What would happen if you didn't finish every module within the time limits imposed? Often the prescribed exam order doesn't come as naturally as some other order of studying might.
To avoid any potential future issues, it's normal for most trainees to insist that all study materials are posted to them in one go, with nothing held back. It's then your own choice how fast or slow and in what order you'd like to take your exams.
