Jerry Irvine: “The more certified you are, the more marketable you are” Chris Brenton: Certifications should not be the end goal so much as a tool you can use in furthering your career. Some certifications require a great deal of work both in and out of the classroom, as well as sitting for the test.

If your company values continuing education, continuing education is a good indication that certification will elevate your status.”]
