Re: Certified MySQL Associate (CMA) certification value

Thanks for the input, everyone. I've gone back and am now leaning
towards a VCC (Vancouver Community College) certificate:

Database Developer Certificate (DDC)

http://www.vcc.ca/cs/_printable-datesort.cfm?
area=CSCOMPUTER&prog=DATABASE#CSCOMPUTERDATABASE

What I like about this is the cumulative effect of formalised learning
with, I hope, job placement help from VCC. It's, I think, an
outrageous price, but is fast and gives me something tangible.

I don't mind paying the cash, but if it's not worth much more than:

Associate (CMA) Certification
http://www.mysql.com/certification/

it wouldn't make sense in a cost/benefit analysis. Just curious what
others think of this program.
