Id like to start a new career in computers, what type of training/schooling should I pursue?
The world of computer careers is vast, computer technology is prevalent in many careers (from networking to graphic design, architecture to computer game programming). So the first question you must answer is what area would like to pursue. The second question is what type of school to go to. Many career changers look to earn either a degree or certification in some type of computer technology. A degree will give you a more general, well rounded education and tends to offer a lot of hands on experience working with computer technologies. The trade off is that degrees take anywhere from 9 months to 4 years to earn. Certifications tend to take less time (although it is not uncommon to take a year to prepare for a more advanced certification and take all the tests needed to earn it). Many employers like to hire certified employees as it assures them that they have at least obtained a certain level of expertise with the technology they are working with. Certification classes very from shor
