i been reading this whole thread and props to everybody who contributing in this and doing their thing in IT
here's my situation, just looking for a little insight on what i can expect:
i got a bachelor's in it/computer science (completed last year), i'm going to be starting a front end web developer/ programmer analyst training as of august 4th (i tested and was awarded a paid scholarship for it). i did some testing for my aptitude and i scored in the upper 10 percentile for it. it's a pretty detailed and will run up into the middle of december. we are gonna be in training Monday through friday from 9 am to 4:30 pm.
the training also will include insurance fundamentals and general insurance for IT support- once it's completed, we test and complete a certification for an AINS 24 General Insurance for IT and Support Professionals exam. we will also be trained in a programming language- C#
After all the training we hopefully should get an opportunity to work a paid internship with a local company for 8 weeks, to prove if we are a fit for the company.
i understand all the work that's ahead of me but i'm just wondering with all the training, does it put me in a good place for the future and will companies still downplay me- once i'm done with the training. just wanna know the chances i have. either way i'm gon grind it out- we just did an interview and an exercise for web designing and i actually enjoyed it so i'm looking forward to it
thanks in advance for any advice or feedback
Not exactly sure what you mean by down play, but companies only respect experience. Training may qualify you for an entry level position, but experience and projects completed is the only sure fire thing that's respected and gets you paid.
