Novell Internet Professional... hmmmm this from a company that didn't even offer a TCP/IP stack for Netware until everyone else had one first. Microsoft "integrating" .. why does that sound so familiar but very scary at the same time. :) Netscape has more of a chance at getting "market share" on training, but why should a software company give Internet training? What are they going to train you to do, use a Browser or ftp? *laugh* If someone wants to offer real Internet training, why not teach the fundamentals of TCP/IP over WAN Protocols and routing. Desktop TCP/IP training can be put on a $19.95 video tape seminar. Eric On 3 Oct 1996, Sean Doran wrote:

Microsoft decided to integrate material related to the Internet into existing MCP programs. Novell took a different approach; they created a new certification called the Novell Internet Professional. Do you see a value in Internet certification? Would you want to be certified in this area? What should the subject matter focus upon (since the Internet is so vast and quickly changing)? Are Microsoft, Novell,and Netscape the right companies to do this, or would a more neutral third party be more appropriate? Just a few questions I'm curious about. Please feel free to reply to this list or to me personally. Thanks. James ------- End of forwarded message -------
