CIW Certification - CIW Foundations - Career Options
|
Qualification you will have:
On passing the CIW Foundations exam you automatically become a CIW Associate. CIW (Certified Internet Webmaster) is recognized as the industry standard Internet certification by employers and educational centres worldwide. CIW is "vendor-neutral", this means that it is not limited to a specific company’s product such as Microsoft, Cisco or Nortel etc. A candidate who accomplishes this certification can choose to design with a variety of tools rather than products from just one particular vendor as with MCSE, CCNP or NCSE certifications. The exam is a combination of technical and non-technical skills and knowledge for those interested in working with the Internet as a designer, developer or administrator.
What it involves:
CIW Foundations is a 90 minute exam with approximately 60 questions which are based in three categories, Internet Fundamentals, Web Page Authoring Fundamentals and Networking Fundamentals. Candidates are required to score a minimum of 75% to pass. You should be familiar with the Internet, Microsoft Windows or UNIX/Linux before taking the exam as it validates your basic hands-on skills and knowledge that a professional is expected to have. You are also expected to know basic Internet technologies, network infrastructure, XHTML, and job skills such as project management and technical writing.
Career Options:
If you are thinking of a career in Web Design, Web Marketing, E-Learning or E-commerce, CIW Foundations certification is where to start. On attaining CIW Certification you can prove to your current or potential employer that you have up to date key job skills that are required to carry out Development, Project Management, e-commerce, Security Management and many more tasks. Furthermore certified IT professionals typically have higher salaries than non-certified colleagues. Achieving the CIW Associate status is an ideal way to break into the IT industry, it is also popular among experienced IT professionals who want certification for their skills.
Further qualifications available:
CIW is recognised by most Employers, Colleges and Universities. College credit is often awarded for CIW Associates so you can use it towards a technology degree, otherwise you can continue on to become a CIW Professional by passing any one of eight CIW job-role exams. You can then continue to become a CIW Master.
There are 4 different areas of CIW Masters all of which require CIW Foundations as a prerequisite. They are Master CIW Designer, Master CIW Administrator, Master CIW Web Site Manager and Master CIW Enterprise Developer. By passing two additional exams namely, CIW Site Designer and CIW E-Commerce Designer you will become a Master CIW Designer. CIW Site Designer validates skills such as Macromedia Flash, GIMP and Microsoft FrontPage for web designers and CIW
E-Commerce Designer deals with generating
revenue on the web, creating payment gateways
and marketing products. It is always a good idea
with technology to use your skills in a
practical environment before continuing to the
next level of certification. |
