Who Should Earn a CIW Certification?

CIW job-role certification is important for all types of IT professionals, from career changers and business professionals to experienced and certified IT professionals.

Career changers

CIW certification is an excellent way to enter the IT industry because vendor-neutral skill certifications address the roles and responsibilities of a specific position. CIW focuses on industry standards, and leading hardware and software technologies. Career changers are not limited by knowledge of only one IT platform.

Business professionals

A CIW certification demonstrates knowledge of industry standards, best practices, and leading hardware and software technology. Taking the time to learn new IT concepts shows a commitment to keep pace with today's technology-driven economy, to better understand a customer's business, and to become more self-sufficient by better understanding the technology on which almost every professional relies.

Experienced and certified IT professionals

If an experienced IT professional does not already have a widely recognized certification, he or she should earn a certification to show current or potential employers a measurement of their skills and expertise.

Those who hold certifications other than CIW can benefit from CIW certification by demonstrating an understanding of multiple and vendor-neutral skills, and knowledge of industry standards and best practices

Support

This is a self study suite so support is not required but if you are experiencing any problems you can email our IT team who will be glad to help.
