Wednesday, May 19, 2010 In a survey
conducted by QAI with over 3500 software professionals, over 90 per cent
respondents were of the opinion that certifications are a value add to
their careers.





The software certifications survey conducted by QAI, a
leading global consulting and workforce development organization was aimed
at understanding the value certification drives to an individual and how
these certifications help them in building their careers and its
additional advantages.

Speaking on the survey report release, Mr.Kishore Balaji, Head- Global
Certifications, QAI Global Institute said "India is an IT superpower today
and to maintain this edge its software professionals need to enhance their
knowledge levels and skill set. Certifications besides training are one of
the most potent ways of increasing ones knowledge base and I am glad that
software professionals of today recognize this fact". He added "This is
our first such survey in the certification space and it throws up some
interesting results - 92 per cent employees stated that certifications
boosted their morale and they gained recognition amongst peers"

The software certification survey also dwelt deeper in understanding finer
aspects and feedback on the common body of knowledge, preferred mode of
learning and the software certification outreach amongst various other
aspects. A majority of the respondents (approximately 57 per cent)
preferred study guides and instructor led trainings to prepare for the
examination while a little less than half of the total respondents (48 per
cent) preferred virtual studying community with fellow applicants. An
almost equal number of respondents preferred webinar sessions to prepare
for certification examinations.

According to Aditya CV, Lead-Quality with a Bangalore based IT company
"Certifications hold a lot of importance in the career growth of a
software professional - since these examinations are tough to clear, it
sieves the best out of the lot thereby fast tracking the individuals
growth in an organization or industry". The QAI Global Institute in its 30
years of existence has established the defacto standard for Software
Quality and Software Testing. Some of the hugely popular QAI
certifications include Certified Software Quality Analyst (CSQA) and
Certified Software Tester (CSTE).
