What do you want to be when you grow up? What do you want to specialize in your last year of school? You have been at your job for two years now, are you staying? Are you growing? WHAT`S NEXT?
Too many questions and not enough answers! And while theoretical answers to these questions are appreciated, the best answers come from real-life experiences of the people who are right in the midst of it.
Let`s concern ourselves with the topic of certification. Quite frankly, the list of certifications available for professionals are endless. This book specifically focuses on eight certifications offered by the Project Management Institute (PMI) organization (The who? We`ll get to them in a moment).
Many of us have been at that stage in life or are currently in it right now, where we know that in order to help solve some of these burning career decision making questions, we tend to seek out certifications in a field we are pursuing, in hopes that it aligns with our skill set and/or interests. Still, the issue remains that further guidance is needed in order to decide which certification path is correct.
Hence, this is why we are here, introducing the following eight certifications. As a bonus, this book will include Testimonials, Dialogue and Discussions from people who have either taken these certifications and are working with them or from people who have questions on the topic of certification. What better way to get some insight to your questions! (The testimonials, dialogue and discussions in this book have been modified from their original conversations).
