April Speaker Bob Crews - President of Checkpoint Technologies |
| Do certifications truly make a difference? As an employer of hundreds of resources in the past 21+ years and an instructor of various QA & Software Testing certification courses, Bob Crews is asked this question regularly. "It depends" is typically his reply. "On what?" they'll then ask. This exchange is then followed by questions such as: · Which certification do you recommend? Why? · What value do they provide to you as an employer? · Are certifications difficult? · What's the cost? · Do I need to renew? · How long does it take to get certified? · What are the prerequisites? · Are all certifications the same? In this interactive presentation Bob answers these questions and more. He will share the benefits of certifications from his perspective as an employer. Focusing on the QAI and ISTQB/ASTQB certifications he will share the specific certifications available, costs, level-of-effort, formats, and tips to prepare. We look forward to having you join us! Learn:· The value of QA and Software Testing certifications · How to determine which certification is right for them · The more popular certification in today's ecosystem |
