The Road To Certification: Part 5-ACSA and ACTC
Article Synopsis
In this series of articles, we have looked at Apple's IT certifications and hardware certifications. We examined reasons for, and benefits of, getting certified, as well as the testing experience and the changes Apple made to its IT certifications with the release of Mac OS X Leopard, and their new Macintosh Technician certification, which qualifies a technician to perform warranty repairs while working at Apple Authorized Service Providers. We also looked at Apple's Pro Apps certifications for applications like Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro. In this final article in the series, we will review the requirements for the new Apple Certified System Administrator (ACSA) 10.5 certification. We look at an overview of the topics covered on each of the exams required for ACSA certification, and what resources are available to help you prepare. Those resources of course will include Apple Authorized Training Center classes and books. We will also discuss how to become an Apple Certified Trainer for IT courses.
