Discussion Questions:
1. How can organizations and vendors change their certification programs to test for skills as well as core knowledge? What issues might this introduce?
ANSWER : As discussed, certifications still is not the best way to know if an IT has the perfect skills required. The company itself must conduct a training program for them to know the proper job for the applicants, this also can help verify the skills the applicants have and if they had passed the standards needed.
2. What are the primary arguments against certification. And how can certifying bodies change their programs to overcome these shortcomings?
ANSWER : They argued that testable IT knowledge does not necessarily translate into quality IT work. Companies can overcome these short comings through proper IT training, with or without certifications.
3. What are the benefits of certification? How might certification programs need to change in the future to better serve the needs of the IT community?
ANSWER : The more certifications you can show into a company you are applying for, the higher the chance you will be hired. And also, as technology changes, the certification programs still has the need to change. This is to update the knowledge of the people, specifically, the IT people.
