MCAD, MCSD Training & Examinations



  • This would seem a good place to ask......

    Can anyone recommended either an online provider, or a provider accessible from Nottingham UK, that provides MCAD/MCSD training and examination?

    I'm after a company that offers good value for money, but not at the expense of quality. I really don't 'need' any personal contact/tutoring for the training, online video or CD/DVD format is fine. It would be great if the bundle included reference books, the training itself and the cost of examination.

    I don't want to sound rude/ignorant, but do people actually program in the UK?

    I always had the impression that the only software coming out of the UK was that Eidos/Tomb Raider stuff.

    ROFL.  Well, at least you weren't rude about it.

    There's tons of programming in pretty much every country with a functioning economy.  Only a tiny fraction of software is shrinkwrapped and sold on (american) store shelves.

  • LOL, last time I checked my software was rolling out to several thousand US retail stores.

    I've over 15 year commercial experience in various languages, OSes and additional experience beyond that. However I'm finding barriers being put up by some companies due to the lack of MS certifications these days. It would seem experience doesn't count for as much as it used to........

    To give myself a 'free reign' in the job market, I'm looking to gain these certifications as quickly and painlessly as possible.

    Strange you should mention Tomb Raider, I worked about 1 mile from where it was developed in my last job ;)
