No Brian, being MCAD means I'm certified to program in C#.NET (like PHP but much more complicated). Basically it means I have a paper that says I think I know what I'm doing. lol

Thanks everyone!

Thank you Only about 6 more weeks and hopefully I'll be finished with two more exams. If I pass those I will be Microsoft Certified Systems Developer MCSD. Not sure what I'm going to take after that, but we'll see.

Congrats! And great that you passed too..been sniffing on thsoe certifications some years ago, but never got up to actually take the courses. Instead I began looking into php on my spare-time..

Seriously, as anyone not educated in programming will tell you, a paper that says you indeed know your stuff, will go along way in obtaining jobs in that area. Otherwise its pretty hard to convince employers that you actually can do the job..

    Congrats Ich! I know how hard those tests can be. I once started down that path and wound up going a different way. Reasons for me not continuing was geographic, but I still have all the books, a little over 2 tons worth!

lol! Yes, it blew my wife away when she realized I had a novel for each course. She thought it was one book for the whole certification. Reading a 1200 page book in 4-5 weeks is not really fun. Looking forward to the job change. Been a little disgruntled lately about my boss and feeling a bit unappreciated. I'm hoping he'll realize how much I do for his company when I'm gone. Our IT market here is very hungry right now, so I don't think it will take me long to find a job. Just need to find one with good benefits.
