Oliver’s Answer

Hi Aylin,

There are many different types of certifications you could take and it will ultimately depend upon what you would like to specialize in. Hopefully the below helps give you an idea of some of them.

Technical Certifications

Common IT Project/Program Management Certifications

  • Project Management Institute (PMI) Certifications - not specific to technology and IT, but used in the technology industry to deliver IT projects and products.
  • SCRUM Certifications - to be part of the DevTeam or be a Scrum Master or Product Owner. Again not specific to technology and IT (but widely used in industry)
  • ITIL Certifications - formerly known as IT Infrastructure Library shows you know how companies approach (based on best practice) IT service management, either internally or with customers.

These may take you a long time to work towards but can really pay off in the long run. The reward is you show / prove you are great at what you do and get access to well-paid jobs.

Oliver recommends the following next steps:

Clarissa’s Answer

If you would like to pursue a career in Information Technology, the obvious choice is to obtain your first degree in Information Technology or Computer Science. This would open doors for you to enter into the IT industry, especially in the technical field. However, if your interest is not in the technical aspect, then, you may consider enrolling in other degree programs such as Business, or Human Resource, or Marketing. You can still work in Information Technology companies in a functional role such as Finance, Marketing, Sales or Human Resource. Many organizations also have Internship program. Be sure to check out the corporate websites of organizations you wish to work in.

Buddhima’s Answer

Spend some time to think about What direction you want to pursue and Why. This can change over time, which is ok. Think about what you might like to do, as well as what you won't. Think about what you want to be good at and what you hope to gain. This helps you look into which skills will get you there.

Another approach is to understand what skill sets are needed at the companies you want to work at and pursue those. Do some research on teams and jobs at companies. Speak to people at those companies to get a good idea.
