Remember our article on Dunbar High in Florida? Certification Magazine just published a great update.
Dunbar is getting ready to graduate their first students who have completed their four-year technical program, and their 26 graduating seniors have as many as fourteen certifications each!
From the article:
“The students work toward different IT certifications each year. Freshmen focus on the CompTIA A+ certification. Sophomores prep for the CompTIA Network+ and Cisco Certified Network Associate certifications. Juniors tackle the Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP), Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator (MCSA) and Microsoft Certified Desktop Support Technician (MCDST) certifications. Seniors work toward the Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE) certification exam.”
Best of luck to the Dunbar Class of 2009—you guys are so fortunate (especially in this economy!) to have such a competitive edge upon entering the job market!
Dunbar is trying to raise funds to continue the program—since it’s buried at the bottom of the article:
