Professional Standards Institute Announces New Certification Program for Database Designers and Modelers
TALLAHASSEE, FL: Professional Standards Institute today announced the December 22nd release of a new certification program for Database Designers and Modelers.
(PRWEB) December 23, 2003 --Individuals earning the PSI Certified Professional Database Designer certification are professionals who have attained an advanced level of expertise and knowledge in Designing, Modeling, Developing, and Implementing Enterprise-Level Databases," said Gary Harris, Director.
The certification test is constructed to measure "Real World" expertise and knowledge. It is a vendor-neutral test; so specific book learning on a particular database server may not help applicants to pass the test. If an applicant has successfully designed and modeled large enterprise-level databases, then they should have no problem passing this test. It is highly recommended that applicants have at least five years of hands-on experience in this field prior to taking it.
The PSI Certified Professional Database Designer (CPDBD) certification test includes, but is not limited to, the following topics: Relational Database Technology, Database Design Objectives, Database Modeling, Database Design Processes, Logical and Physical Design, Database Table Structures and Relationships, Database Analysis, Business Rules in Database Design, Structured Query Language, and Database Consulting.
What has always bothered me about certification tests is that with most of them you could study a book, take the test, become certified, and have never worked a minute in that field at all," said Gary Harris. We construct our tests to measure knowledge gained on the job - not in books."
Obtaining professional certification is extremely beneficial to individuals in that it proves to potential and current employers an advanced level of knowledge in a field. Professional Standards Institutes certifications go a step further by ensuring that this knowledge is obtained through experience.
Professional Standards Institute is dedicated to the establishment, development, and preservation of high professional standards and ethics. For more information, please visit www.ProfessionalStandardsInstitute.com.
