I just passed another certification exam, so now I have all these exciting letters and symbols near my name. It's awfully exciting to very few people.

No MCSE?

Nope. It's terribly difficult to wrangle both time and money from work for that sort of development, so I've only managed a few new certifications. Like most corporations, we're kinda short-sighted in the professional development area. To get my MCSE, I'd need 5-6 more exams, and the one exam I have (Win2K Pro) is rapidly becoming persona non grata with Microsoft anyway. Once I add in the fact that we already have many Microsoft trainers, I tend to focus on other areas instead...

No Novell or Oracle?

Now you're just playing with me. Nope, no Novell or Oracle. Or Sun. Or HP. Or IBM. But I am looking at more UNIX-type ones, as they're less common and more u$eful around here...

Congratulations Cam.

Or should I say, Cameron MacLeod, BCS, A+, Network+, i-Net+, Security+, CIW CI, MCP.

What did you get your MCP in?

W2K Pro. I may attempt other MS exams someday, but for now I like the "become unique in the organization" angle that I'm playing. There are no Linux+ certifications in my company, for example. So that's next.

Do you have to get really long business cards now?

No, thank goodness -- my wallet is too big as it is! They use a tiny tiny tiny font instead. :) So my whole name line ends up looking like this:

least you don't have to worry about it getting into the wrong hands.


When I first saw your unabbreviated name, the first thing that came to mind was a show dog with all his awards...lol.

I want to say for the record that I haven't understood a single thing said in this entire thread.

Congratulations, Cam! That's wicked. New certifications rock.

That they do. I kinda wish I'd gone for Linux+ first, because then I'd be one of a kind in the company. Oh well, something to attack next either inside or outside Polar Bear, as life carries me...
