Why You Should Take the Security+ 2011 Certification Boot Camp
Benefits of Certification
For IT professionals, certification is a third party validation of your skills, that helps distinguish you from your peers. Beyond demonstrating a level of competency and proficiency, certification proves that you are committed to your cause and that you've invested the time and money to prove it. Holding a certification also makes you a more valuable employee, and often results in raises, promotions, and a better career.
For organizations, certifications identify the credentials that can be used to hire the right employee. Having certified employees also increases sales for the organization by proving to prospective clients that the organization has the skills to support its claims.

Business Needs:
The client, who has used NetCom Learning in the past for specialized training initiatives, has a business unit that is implementing Radio Frequency Identification(RFID) technology, as a pilot program in the area of inventory control/asset management.The company plan is that RFID technology will be used in a workforce location using a RFID tag to identify and track materials through the job process. The RFID data will be translated by Microsoft Biz Talk Server then routed to the company's ERP software (Enterprise Resource Planning) for reporting and analysis. The client is using a systems integrator for the RFID implementation. The internal team at the business unit located at an international site wants to have a working knowledge of the software and technology involved in the implementation process. This would provide the team with the required background to supervise the implementation oft he project and ensure that the right questions are asked.
