mark110384 Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Hey guys, Not really a technical question I'm just looking for advice. I'm thinking on taking a PHP w3c certified exam, I'm just wondering if it is really worth doing, will it really boost my profile as a web developer or be a complete and utter waste of money? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 I fail to see why the w3c would even offer such certifications, do you have a link? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zer0day Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 I believe that this is what he's talking about: http://www.w3schools.com/cert/cert_php.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark110384 Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 Sorry it's w3c schools the link is http://www.w3schools.com/cert/default.asp , does it hold any weight in boosting you development profile. Or is there something similar that could be useful? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 w3schools is in no way related to the w3c. And no, I wouldn't say a cert from them would pull any weight. Its simply a tutorial site (and frankly, not a very good one). The only php cert that I would think would pull any weight would be one of the ones offered by zend, but even those from all reports are very simple to pass and therefore not really worth the paper there written on. Search our Misc board and you should find some already existing topics on the subject. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
