Dennis,

What you need more than a class is real-world experience. It's not like MCSE where you go to boot camp, learn the answers to the questions, come out with a certification and no practical knowledge/experience at all.

The exam developers suggest two years full-time experience with VFP6.


>Hi. Been awhile. I have a couple of questions about certification. Hoping someone here can answer a few of them.
>
>As I understand it, Micro Endeavors, Inc. offers VFP 6 certification courses. Does this apply to VFP 7? Are there other firms offering VFP certification?
>
>On the ME web site, I saw three development courses, VF603, VF604, and ME612. What does ME612 cover that VF603/604 do not? I asked because course descriptions are only available if you fill out a web form.
>
>I see on the ME site that Microsoft offers finanical aid in the form of low interest loans. Has anyone ever applied for this Microsoft loan? Does anyone else offer loans or grants for this type of education?
>
>I want to know what it would take to get certified. I took a two week VFP 3 course long ago, and got no ROI. Before I spend $5000 in classes plus three weeks living in Pittsburg, I'd like to know all my options. Any advice would be greatly appreciated...Dennis
