nick1 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Greetings, I am considering earning some type of web development certification and was wondering if anyone could recommend a particular program, such as the Certified Web Professional Program or World Organization of Web Masters program. I'm looking for a quality program that is widely known and whose graduates are sought after in industry. Thanks, Nick Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/40103-certification-question/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
utexas_pjm Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I would reccommend the Zend PHP Certification and the MySQL Developer Certification.

dustinnoe Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Actually, the thing that would help you more would be a heafty portfolio. Do some donations for non profits with the agreement that they will supply a reference. If I was hiring a web developer I would much rather see past work that a piece of paper that says you can do it. Just a thought and my opinion on certifications. They are great but worthless without a porfolio. This is all assuming you don't have a portfolio, if so go with what utexas_pjm suggested.

jcombs_31 Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I don't understand why anyone would want a 'web' certification. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/40103-certification-question/#findComment-196144 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustinnoe Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I don't understand why anyone would want a 'web' certification. Self-satisfactions I suppose.

Jessica Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Yeah, I'm getting the Zend PHP Cert just to do it for myself. Plus it's practically the cheapest certification you can get. My husband is studying for one which will cost him several thousand dollars. If I can spend $200 to prove to myself I could do it, that's good for me Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/40103-certification-question/#findComment-196258 Share on other sites More sharing options...
