RE: FLASH: Certifications

[Joe Shoults]

Sorry to correct you Marco, but you didn't get "certified" in Director.  You

might have received a Certificate of Completion for a class you took, or

maybe even something somebody calls a "certification" but there is no MM

certification yet, per se.


I run two Macromedia Authorized Training Centers.  I came to the Macromedia

Training Sales world from the world of certification sales for Microsoft,

Novell, Lotus, etc.  I have been on the soap about the Macromedia

certification issue since day one (3.5 years ago).  I have demonstrated

certification benefits to individuals, to Macromedia, to channel partners

and to the industry as a whole.  Whether or not MM decides to pursue this

... well, we'll just have to wait and see.   I am optimistic of our success.


I'll leave you with this:

The only people who should object to certification are those who are afraid

of it.


Joe
