An Introduction to Apple Certification

Posted by admin 14 June, 2008 (0) Comment

ACTC CertificateI spent three days in a class last week learning about Leopard. It probably sounds a little strange that a guy who works day in and day out on “nothin’ but Macs” would be taking a class to learn more about the Mac operating system, but I did it for a reason - I am an Apple Certified Technical Coordinator (ACTC) and I need to keep my certification current. Within a few weeks, I’ll be taking a certification exam to prove that my brain absorbed some of the course content and my years of Mac experience really have turned me into a Mac guru.

Not many people know about the certifications available to Apple professionals. Certification has a number of benefits to independent consultants and wage slaves alike, including recognition of professional competency, credibility with clients and employers, and the ability to publicize your certifications on Apple’s website. For those of us who are Apple Consultant Network members, we can have clients referred to us by the Apple Stores.

Over the next few weeks, I’ll post several articles about the different types of certifications available to you, how to become certified, and why you might want to consider getting certified. Read more after the break. Read the rest of this entry
