Been there and done that. My IT job at Shell, I was told if I wanted to keep my job I need to take the CompTIA A+ test. I did, and I kept my job (Until the %20 layoff came around)

I went out and got my MCAD. It helped me get my job I have today. It actually helped more than my College degree and my experience.
