We provide IT Professionals and IT Departments from around the world with IT training in the currently most In-Demand IT Certifications for 2014 in a professional, yet relaxed and exotic atmosphere.
What are the most in-demand IT certifications right now? Not surprisingly, IT professionals and job candidates with certifications in security and cloud computing are hugely attractive to employers. But basic knowledge on systems planning, development, and maintenance are attractive to employers, too.
We train you for knowledge buildup and preparation in the certifications your employer are most likely to expect you to have and are most likely to earn you the highest pay in the current market. We currently offer training for the following certifications:
ITIL Expert V3
An acronym for Information Technology Infrastructure Library, the ITIL training offers four levels of distinction: Foundation, Intermediate, Expert, and Master. The certification involves learning how to identify, plan, deliver, and support an IT department. It focuses on how IT can be used to grow and develop the business.
Professionals with the ITIL Foundation V3 will be able to improve services of the business, reduce operating costs for their employers, improve the company’s customer satisfaction ratings, and increase the productivity of other departments.
The Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITILv3) is a foundational process that provides for quality IT Service Management. The success of ITIL is through the use of documented and proven processes that cover the entire Service Lifecycle. The ITIL Expert level is the third of four levels. The ITIL Expert level certification is aimed at those individuals who are interested in demonstrating a superior level of knowledge of ITIL Version 3 (v3) in its entirety. Once you have achieved ITIL Expert level, you will also satisfy the pre-requisite entry criteria for the ITIL Master Level. This is the highest level of certification within the ITIL v3 scheme, though the Master level is still under development.
CISSP
Organizations must protect their systems, data, and networks, and information security architects are in high demand. With the shift towards storing data in cloud systems, security experts have a vital role to play in ensuring these systems remain as secure as servers maintained in-house. Among the variety of security certifications available, the CISSP certification is highly respected, extremely popular and generally receives the highest average salary.
The Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) credential is for security managers and professionals who develop policies and procedures in information security. The CISSP certification has become the gold standard in information security certifications. Earning and maintaining a CISSP certification is required for many governmental, military, and civilian security positions. The CISSP was the first credential in the field of information security, accredited by the ANSI (American National Standards Institute) to ISO (International Organization for Standardization) Standard 17024:2003. Earning your CISSP certification is not only an objective measure of excellence, but it is a globally recognized standard of achievement.
A Certified Information Systems Security Professional, or CISSP, has to have five years experience in at least two of ten domains to qualify. The exam covers all ten of the domains:
Security consultant
Security manager
IT director or manager
Security auditor
Security architect
Security analyst
Security systems engineer
Chief information security officer
Director of security
Network architect
The certification process ensures competence in managing risks inherent in doing business online, cloud computing security, mobile device security, and application development security.
Security+
Internationally recognized, the Security + certification is completely vendor neutral, which means it opens up job opportunities in any industry or company. The certification process requires two years experience in tech networking with an emphasis on security. It involves a 90 minute exam with no more than 100 questions. Questions are a mix of multiple choice and performance based questions. There are several areas of expertise tested in the certification exam, including:
•Network security
•Compliance and operations
•Threats and vulnerabilities
•Application, data and host security
•Access control and identification management
•Cryptography
PMP - Project Management Professional
Project management is a classic, foundational skill that evolves with new technologies and will never become outdated. A strong understanding of project management enables IT professionals to plan, budget, manage time, and reduce costs. With many companies reducing staff and seeking more efficient operations, project management skills will make IT professionals more effective and add another dimension to their resumes.
Qualified project managers are a tremendous need for employers, making the PMP (Project Management Professional) certification very attractive. Having this certification allows job candidates to command a higher salary and opens job opportunities that wouldn’t be available without it.
The Project Management Institute’s (PMI) Project Management Professional (PMP) credential is recognized as the most important certification for project managers and is globally recognized and in heavy demand. The PMP credential demonstrates that you not only have the requisite, real-world experience, but that you also have the education to successfully lead and direct projects. The PMP credential should only be attempted by experienced project managers as the qualifications and testing for this certification are very rigorous. In addition, the PMI requires continued validation through required continuing education requirements. All of these factors ensure that the PMP credential is widely respected. The PMP experience and exam requirements focus on five process groups: initiating, planning, executing, controlling, and closing.
In order to apply for PMP certification, you must have five years experience in project management with a diploma or associates degree, plus 7,500 hours directing a project and 35 hours of project management education. Applicants with a 4-year college degree, Bachelor’s degree, or international equivalent need to have 4,500 hours leading projects plus 35 hours of project management education to qualify.
CCDA® - Cisco Certified Design Associate
The Cisco Certified Design Associate (CCDA) demonstrates that the individual who has passed the required exams has the requisite knowledge, experience, and understanding required to design a Cisco converged network. A CCDA-certified individual has the skills to design a routed and switched network infrastructure and services involving LAN, WAN, and broadband access for businesses and organizations.
The Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) validates the holder’s ability to install, configure, operate, and troubleshoot medium-sized route and switched networks, including implementation and verification of connections to remote sites in a WAN. CCNA curriculum includes basic mitigation of security threats, introduction to wireless networking concepts and terminology, and performance-based skills. This new curriculum also includes (but is not limited to) the use of these protocols: IP, Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), Serial Line Interface Protocol Frame Relay, Routing Information Protocol Version 2 (RIPv2), VLANs, Ethernet, and access control lists (ACLs).
VCP – VMware Certified Professional
Virtualization, or the creation of virtual computing platforms, is used to improve scalability and reduce infrastructure costs in hardware-intensive computing environments. The virtualization industry is young and full of potential, and VMware is the industry leader in both virtualization software and virtual certifications. They are reaching the height of their popularity and their certifications are more valuable than ever.
Virtualization and those who are knowledgeable on virtualization products are in heavy demand. VMware is one of the leading vendors of virtualization products and earning a VMware certification is the first step toward gaining industry-recognized expertise in virtual infrastructure and the industry recognition that goes along with it. The VMware Certified Professional (VCP5) demonstrates that you have the skillset to successfully install, manage, and deploy VMware vSphere 5.
