As our 2023 retrospective concludes, we're going back to the well of popular Certification Watch news roundups. As previously noted in this space, there were almost 50 Certification Watch news roundups this year. We rattled off the 10 most popular editions already.
Without further ado, lets cruise through from 21 to 40 on our countdown of the Most Popular Certification Watch news roundups of 2023:
21) Certification Watch, Vol. 26, No. 5 (Feb. 1, 2023) — Random Quotation: Mark Zuckerberg is betting big on the metaverse. So big, in fact, that he essentially changed the name of his company from Facebook to Meta. (He didn't change the name of Facebook, perhaps because sometimes you stick with what works, you know?)
22) Certification Watch, Vol. 26, No. 35 (Aug. 30, 2023) — Random Quotation: Your 30th birthday is a milestone. It's a point at which almost everyone looks around a little — or a lot — and takes stock of where they are in life. What progress have they made toward achieving their career goals?
23) Certification Watch, Vol. 26, No. 41 (Oct. 11, 2023) — Random Quotation: Certification quite often (invariably, some would say) has a positive impact on earning power. Certification is a fast and effective way to add IT skills to one's repertoire.
24) Certification Watch, Vol. 26, No. 29 (May 24, 2023) — Random Quotation: Many credentials have a recommended level of professional experience, but only high-level certifications typically require professional experience.
25) Certification Watch, Vol. 26, No. 19 (April 19, 2023) — Random Quotation: The certification gurus at computer networking titan Cisco haven't always known precisely what to make of CCNA, the cornerstone Cisco credential that verifies foundational computer networking skills and knowledge.
26) Certification Watch, Vol. 26, No. 32 (Aug. 9, 2023) — Random Quotation: Across all educational arenas, there is often a tendency to reject mistakes and enshrine correct answers. You don't get credit on most academic or professional exams for answering a question, or solving a problem, or working through a process, incorrectly.
27) Certification Watch, Vol. 26, No. 2 (Jan. 11, 2023) — Random Quotation: Just like Sandra Bullock in the cautionary 1995 thriller The Net, in 2023 you don't have to leave the house to have a thriving IT career. (One of the creepier aspects of The Net, was its implication that Sandra Bullock would soon no longer need to leave the house for anything, and thank heaven that we haven't quite gotten to that level of letting Amazon run our lives and meet our needs.)
28) Certification Watch, Vol. 26, No. 26 (June 28, 2023) — Random Quotation: Like, that's not 100 percent exactly how they phrased it themselves. We can all read between the lines, however, of a new post to the Microsoft Learn Blog that addresses the need we all have to break out of our personal and individual comfort zones.
29) Certification Watch, Vol. 26, No. 33 (Aug. 16, 2023) — Random Quotation: Like a teenager who finally gets the braces off their teeth, cybersecurity professional association (ISC)² is (so to speak) losing its brackets. The long-tenured organization, founded in 1989, has for many years used parentheses and the exponent two as a wink-wink visual shorthand for its much longer official title(.)
30) Certification Watch, Vol. 26, No. 45 (Nov. 8, 2023) — Random Quotation: Here's a quotation that many may find intriguing: "Business operations generate data the way baseball generates statistics: automatically, and on a massive scale."
