Introduction

Updates: Registrations are now closed.

Last Date for Registration Extended to 16th August

The biggest trend in IT careers is certification. You see it everywhere you look... certification books dominate the bookstores, classroom training now guarantees a "pass," and IT professionals even sign their emails with a list of their "certs." Is it worth the effort and attention?

First, understand that an entire industry profits from certification. Trainers sell certification-oriented courseware, consultants push training, publishers market books, and vendors sell all the above. The upshot is that you can't take most articles on certification at face value. Let's take a different tack. We'll try to look at the issue objectively, from the standpoint of the IT professional.

Why certify? Some do it for the challenge of demonstrating their knowledge, or for the inner satisfaction that comes from mastery of the material. Whether a "certified DB2 developer" is better than one that is not certified is, to say the least, highly debatable. What we can say for sure is that if you certify, you'll end up knowing more about DB2 than you did when you started.

ONLY students of 3rd and 4th Year B.Tech and any year M.Tech are eligible to participate.

DB2 730 Certification Exam will be held in Campus during 2nd to 5th September.

All the registrants who qualify a pre-mock test will be allowed to appear for the DB2 730 Certification FREE of cost.
