Unofficial Situation Update.

The issue being experienced on the site from around 1:30am midnight is not from us.

"Error establishing a database connection"

We've worked on every thing neccesary to allow DEXA carry a capacity of 500k visitors per month.

I (Mr Awesome) literally, upgraded CPU, moved database and web files to our 10X upgraded server through the FileZilla software myself.

I worked on the backend. Lol

I had to roll up my sleeves and strain those eyes some more.

So, DEXA sharp and intact on our end.

And this screenshot is a message from our hosting provider.

It seems thousands of websites hosted on them will apparently be experiencing same issue.

We've mailed them and we believe they are doing everything to resolve this issue.

You must earn your certificate in Project Management. None of these hindrances are capable of stopping you.

We care and will always do our best to carry you along.

On their behalf, we apologize for all inconveniences caused and experienced.

Victor,
DEXA.

The Relevance of A Project Management Certificate In The Tech Job Market

Effective project management is more important than ever in the modern, quickly expanding IT sector. The need for qualified project managers is always increasing as businesses try to improve productivity, streamline processes, and complete challenging projects on schedule and within budget. A project management certification may be a great advantage for people trying to enhance their careers in the IT sector. It not only demonstrates proficiency in project management approaches and best practices, but it may also lead to better pay and new job options. Here are some relevance of having project management certification in Tech Industry

Industry recognition: Project management certifications, such as the Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, are globally recognized credentials. They demonstrate that one have a standardized understanding of project management principles and practices. Employers in the tech industry often value these certifications as they assure one’s knowledge and skills in managing projects effectively. Other certifications include: Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM), Program Management Professional (PgMP), Agile Certified Practitioner (ACP), Risk management Professional (PMI-RMP) & Certified Scrum Master (CSM)

Credibility: Employers will have trust and confidence that such a candidate/applicant must have been well-taught about the rudiments and practices of managing a project. The sphere of influence of a Project Management Certification incites assurance and value in candidates especially when the certificate is from a well-known learning platform to the outside world.

Competitive advantage: The tech job market can be highly competitive, and having a project management certificate sets an individual apart from other candidates. It shows one’s commitment to professional development and his ability to handle complex projects, making one more attractive candidate for roles that involve project management responsibilities. In addition to providing a competitive edge in the job market, project management certification also provides a significant boost to earning potential. According to a recent survey by the Project Management Institute (PMI), professionals with Project management certifications earn 25% more than those without

Transferable skills: Project management skills are applicable across various industries, including the tech sector. With a project management certificate, you acquire skills in areas such as planning, scheduling, risk management, budgeting, and stakeholder communication, which are crucial in technology-related projects. These skills can help one successfully lead and deliver tech projects within budget, timeline, and scope. Moreover, project management certification provides a common language and framework for managing projects, regardless of industry or company size. This makes it easier for employers to evaluate and compare the skills of different professionals and ensures that projects are executed consistently and efficiently.

Alignment with industry trends: Technology projects often involve multiple stakeholders, diverse teams, and complex timelines. A project management certificate gives the knowledge to navigate these challenges effectively. It demonstrates one’s understanding of modern project management methodologies, such as Agile or Scrum, which are widely adopted in the tech industry. Employers value professionals who can apply these methodologies to deliver projects efficiently.

Career progression opportunities: In the tech industry, project management roles are abundant. These roles involve overseeing software development projects, infrastructure deployments, system implementations, and more. A project management certificate can open doors to opportunities for advancement within a current organization or when seeking new positions.
It provides evidence of one’s ability to handle projects at different scales and complexities, enabling one to take on more significant responsibilities and higher-level roles.

In summary, the relevance of project management certification in the tech job market cannot be overstated. It demonstrates one’s ability to effectively manage projects, improves competitiveness in the job market, and significantly increases earning potential. Therefore, if a tech professional looking to advance in his career, obtaining a project management certification should be a top priority.
