Wow. Where did you find the time? At which school did you find all those
night classes?

Cheers.

I just thought I would put in a few thoughts from someone who has 3
university based certificates (tech writing, tech editing, and
professional writing).

These meant that I took more classes in these areas (over and above my
BA in English with emphesis in Technical Writing), had to maintain a B
or better in all of them, and prepare a portfolio of material for each
that was then judged by a board of 5 professors in order to receive each
certificate.

It let me be both an experienced worker (9 years at the same company)
and a college student (new graduate in 2001) in my interviews. Did I
get more money? I don't think so... but it got me in the door.

The coursework, interactions in classes, experience in tools and
requirements, all lead to a highly successful and varied career.
