Researching Industry Certification
ICT

What is an Industry Certification?
Industry Certification in any computer based is a very impressing Resume addition for anyone looking for a computer related career.
It is not a replacement for a college degree.

What is required?
Most certifications require TESTS, and lots of them.
Each test can range from $20 to over $100.
By the end of the testing process, it is normal to spend anywhere between $150 to $5000.

So what’s the assignment?
Research the following certifications

• CCNA
• Microsoft Office Specialist (formerly MOUS)
• MCSE
• IC³
• A+
• ACE
• MCP
• CIW

What you will tell me...
What is required of EACH certification. List the tests that are required as well as the most appropriate path to take (some certifications such as MOS have different paths. Others, such as IC³, do not).

Most certifications have multiple paths to complete any certain certification. Pick one path and TELL ME WHY you chose this particular path.

What you will use...

• Microsoft PowerPoint
• You will develope a slide show explaining each certification.
  
• This will be ONE SLIDESHOW, not 8. You should have multiple slides per certification topic. Remember, do not put so much information on one slide that it is hard to read.
• You must have images withint this slide show. There is no minimum or maximum, but with a slide show, more images is usually better.
  
• YOU WILL NOT PLAGERISE!
