Microsoft - MCTS .NET 3.5 Web and Data Applications - Benefits
Benefits of MCTS certification
- An MCTS certification highlights your areas of expertise, so that your skills and knowledge stand out to hiring managers and project leads
- By earning multiple MCTS certifications, you can demonstrate your breadth of knowledge of Visual Studio 2008. You can also build on your MCTS certifications to earn a Professional Series credential
- MCTS certification grants you access to the Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) community and benefits, including a personal profile on Microsoft.com and access to the Microsoft Knowledge Base
Benefits of IT certification
For IT managers, certification is particularly important because it allows them to more easily identify the skills that an individual possesses. When a company has employees that possess certain skills, it can garner a competitive advantage when seeking to attract customers. Certification can also contribute to increased productivity, because studies have shown that certified individuals are generally quicker to implement and design new technologies. And of course by knowing that their employees are certified, IT managers can feel more confident about their ability to implement and support a network infrastructure.
Other training providers rely heavily on lecture, self-testing and self-study.
Our approach is highly varied and interactive to keep your attention, promote teamwork, and reinforce knowledge gained through hands-on learning.
You will:
Be Immersed into a distraction-free environment - escaping your normal routine and focusing purely on learning.
Experience Accelerated Learning methods – designed to help you learn much more quickly, spend less time out of the office, and see returns from your investment straight away.
Be Measured through on-site exam testing - creating a complete feedback loop that ensures you understand the subject thoroughly.
With Firebrand Training, you will learn more.
This information has been provided as a helpful tool for candidates considering certification. Benefits of certification determined through studies do not guarantee any particular personal successes. Firebrand Training provides a guarantee of obtaining certification at the camp, but does not make any guarantees about personal successes or benefits of obtaining certification.

"If you want to feel tired, out of your depth and yet learn a lot and maybe pass an exam this is the course for you.
If, like me, you want a strong chance to pass, don't come on the course until you have done some sample exams remotely and picked up the books that will be used on the course. Then make a decision as to whether you are ready.
The sales staff do not understand the subjects and should not be relied upon to make a judgement about course attendance.

"The most technically challenging and rewarding course I have been on to date - even after 20 years in the industry! The Firebrand Training instructor clearly knew his stuff inside and out. Not only a master of the technology but matched with real world experience. This helped enormously in the explaination of topics and how they "actually" work!
Thoroughly enjoyable!!!"
