An authoritative certificate of computer programming.

First, the certification examination of large foreign companies.

1。 Microsoft certification, including certificates of system management direction, database direction and development direction.

They are called MCSE, mcdeba, MCAD/MCSD.

2。 There are too many IBM certifications, such as e-commerce, database, mainframe, development and so on. Because there are too many names, I won't list them here. If you are interested, you can go to IBM's website or Prometric or VUE's website (these are two national certification examination centers) (certification introductions of other international companies can also be viewed on the websites of these two examination centers).

3。 Lotus certification, Lotus is a subsidiary of IBM. Lotus Notes certification was popular for some time, but its products are mainly used in office automation, so the market is limited. Now few people have taken the Lotus certification.

4。 Sun authentication mainly includes two directions, one is the management direction of Sun Solaris system, and the other is the very popular Java authentication direction. Among them, Java directions include: SCJP, SCJD, SCWCD, SCMAD, SCWSD, SCEA, etc. The highest level is Sun Certified Enterprise Application Architect.

5。 Oracle authentication, mainly Oracle database management. Oracle Bone Inscriptions certification examination needs to be trained by an authorized institution in Oracle Bone Inscriptions to take the examination.

6。 Cisco certified has been very popular in the past few years. Common certificates are CCNA/CCDA, CCNP/CCDP and CCIE, and CCIE is the highest level. There are probably thousands of people who have obtained CCIE certification in China, and they will get good treatment or salary at work. This is also the certification with relatively high gold content at present, and the examination fee is also expensive, 1 1,000 RMB.

7。 Adobe certification is also aimed at the company's products, with directions such as web design, graphic design, digital video and commercial publishing.

8。 Hp certification, knowing that there is HP -UX system management certification, other certifications are not well understood.

9。 Linux certification, mainly LPI certification, does not belong to company certification, and is an international non-profit organization certification examination.

10。 CIW certification, as well as a series of certificates (various names), are all online. By the way, the full name of CIW is to certify the Internet webmaster, so CIW's series of certificates are all around all aspects of the Internet, such as website development, maintenance and management, network security and so on.

Second, the domestic certification examination

1。 Computer Grade Examination, an examination under the Ministry of Education, is divided into 1-4 grades. The highest level is level 4, which corresponds to the level of computer major undergraduate graduation. The examination is divided into two parts: theoretical examination (written examination) and computer examination. Generally speaking, the preparation of written test is a little easier than that of computer test, and computer test is sometimes influenced by the mood at that time (nervous).

2。 The computer software grade and qualification examination is jointly organized by the Ministry of Information Industry and the Ministry of Personnel. Divided into multiple directions, each direction has three levels. However, the highest level has not been set in every direction yet. Take the direction of program development as an example, there are programmers, software designers and system analysts (the highest level).

To sum up: most of the foreign certifications listed above were once hot (starting from the Internet and IT craze of 1999). Nowadays, certificates are no longer particularly favored by employers. Therefore, it is enough to only test the direction of your future work.

Direction 1: software development direction

First of all, we should consider the software level and qualification examination (usually referred to as soft examination); Secondly, if you want to develop in the direction of Java, you can consider Sun's Java series certification exam.

Direction 2: System management direction

System management mainly refers to Linux/Unix system management and database system management. So we can consider choosing one of Sun or HP Unix system or LPI Linux system for testing. Oracle authentication can be considered for the database.

Direction 3: Network management direction

There are not many choices, mainly Cisco. In addition, there is also a certificate in the direction of network in the soft exam, such as network designer. Secondly, the industry also has Huawei certification exams.

Direction 4: Creative design direction

This aspect is the world of Adobe, and the only choice is Adobe certification. There is nothing to say. According to the introduction of Adobe certification above, choose the certification direction and certificate that suits you.
