Thanks for the feedback John and the best of the luck for you on your quest :-) Cheers,Joao Vaz And if your dream is to care for your family, to put food on the table, to provide them with an education and a good home, then maybe suffering through an endless, pointless, boring job will seem to have purpose. And you will realize how even a rock can change the world, simply by remaining obstinately stationary.-Shog9 Remember just because a good thing comes to an end, doesn't mean that the next one can't be better.-Chris Meech

The following Universities offer BS, MBA and MS degrees online, which are good, but dont take my word, do research on these and other universities: www.umuc.edu ( University of Maryland) www.Snhu.edu (Southern New Hampshire University) www.worldcampus.psu.edu/imba (Penn State ) http://academics.uww.edu/business/onlinemba (University of Wisconsin) http://www.uopdegreesonline.com (University of Phoenix ) There are a few other universities which offer masters and bachelors online. I have my friend who is doing his MS frm University of Maryland online. He is happy abt it. So please check the reviews + research on the universities. One more point : If you are serious to study , you can study any where.. learning opportunities never ends. Good Luck

Now i am not sure of what should i do I'm assuming you mean education-wise, not career-wise. My 2 cents, get some experience with C#, C++, and database design. And learn as much as you can on your own--design techniques, modeling, applications, etc. Marc Help! I'm an AI running around in someone's f*cked up universe simulator.

Actually experience is the best thing to have, this will be more important than a certification. Some companies love people with certs. and some companies really don't care. A cert. will not hurt, but experience is crucial in this day and age. Good Luck! R.Bischoff | C++   .NET, Kommst du mit?

I just left Singapore and came back to the U.S. Reason: No more jobs !! I have 6 yrs experience programming just about everything .. Goodluck .. If it makes you feel any better there are no jobs in the U.S. either .. :)

Paul, if you still haven't come right then send me details offline (you should still have my emaill address if you haven't thrown my CV away, yet :laugh: ). I'll forward it to one of the heavies at the Jhb office. I'm sure they can make an arrangement in exchange for a case study or something...

Know of any? Well... I remeber that when I applied to my MCT certification there was a check box with something like "I´m free lancer trainer and I want people to contact me to receive training" or something like that. So.. I thought that M$ have a list of some sort. I´ll try to get some information on the CTEC tonight...
