Certifications - Weekend exams?

[bluedrop]

Hi all,
I am a new contractor and I am looking at getting some certifications to strengthen my CV

I's like to take up ISEB exams (4 of them) for BA Diploma. Could someone advice if I can take the exams on weekends somewhere? Exams only - no training (missing work for 4 days doesnt sound good)

Depends on which exam you want to take, surely?

Doesn't look like it, looking on Google, though.

I took my Cisco exams at the weekend as that was the only time I was free. I don't know if your exam/course is avilable and I not sure if they still do weekends but check with them. Link is below -

I think so. It just adds more to your CV. If a requirment of the role is a Cisco qualification, your CV may not get binned in the first instance. I went for an interview 2 weeks ago that required a Cisco qualification and some VMWare experience. I have both. I didnt get the job as another guy also had Cisco qualification as well as a VMware qualification, and he got the contract.
