OK, I'll bite ;-) As someone who has just completed a degree I'm afraid I'll have to agree with you Chad. I look back on what I've actually learnt over the past 10 years (that right! 10. I've been doing it part time through distance education as well as getting married, having 2 kids, 3 jobs, 2 states, 3 houses...) and if I had to summarize I'd say it taught me a little about many things, but not a lot of anything in particular! Interviewer: "What can you tell me about the OSI?" Me: "Open Systems Interconnect, 7 layers, blah blah" Interviewer: "Good" Interviewer: "Have you ever administered a network before?" Me: "ar.. no" Interviewer: "mmm" Interviewer: "What's OOP" Me: "Object Oriented Programming, classes, instances, inheritance, polymorphism... ramble, ramble, ramble" Interviewer: "What projects have you worked on that involved OOP?" Me: "um .. none" Interviewer: "mmm" Interviewer: "What languages have you used?" Me: "Java/J2EE, Perl, PHP, javascript, C, C++, Ruby" Interviewer: "That's good. How would you rate your level of expertise in these languages" Me: "um .. beginner in all of them" Interviewer: "Is it time for coffee?" (See a trend yet ;-)) Interviewer: "What Operating systems are you familar with?" Me: "Windows 95/Me/2000/XP, Linux/Unix" Interviewer: "Good, so what does 'make >& make.output &' do then?" Me: "ar .. uses make ..." Interviewer: "Ar .. so you know about 'make' then?" Me: "well, I've heard of it" (Sinks into chair) Interviewer: "mmm, go on.." Me: "I'm not getting this job, am I?" Interviewer: "um ... no!" Uni teaches a lot of theory, but unless you're working in the industry that's all it is.. theory! I'm actually working in IT now but I wasn't for the first 8 years of the degree. Now that I've finished, it's time to actually learn something beyond an introductory level. I'm not saying the degree wasn't beneficial. It was. But I would say there was a lot of 'fluff'. I do though find myself thinking "oh, that's what the lecturer was trying to get across" at times. One thing I will say about the whole Cert/Uni thing though is it depends on the person. Like somebody else said, you could sleep through a course, barely pass the exam, and forget it the next day. Or you could use it as a springboard to go further. Would I do another Cert/degree? Nope! Hopefully I'll get to a point where I'll be of some use to an open source project. I think that would definitely be the way to go. cheers, -- Mark
