International Certificatiion

I would like to express my views over the importance of International Certification in building the career of budding Engineers.
I hope, students might be aware of various corporates like Microsoft,IBM,Cisco etc...
What I'm about to tell might be new for some and may be well known for others.
All the major corporates in the World offer various certification to provide a global recognition to the technical knowledge of a person. Apart from these, there are certain third party organisations like Brainbench and Expert Rating which help the corporates in identifying the right person for the employment offers in those corporates by offering various online exams.
The most written exams in India are those provided by Microsoft, Cisco, IBM, Oracle, Sun Microsystems etc. Apart from all these corporates there are yet more corporates that provide international certification like 3COM, Adobe, APC, Apple, BEA Systems, Citrix, CIW, CompTIA, Computer Associates, CWNP, Dell, EC-Council, EMC, Enterasys Networks, Ericsson, Exam Express, EXIN, Extreme Networks, FileMaker, Foundny Networks, Fujitsu, Guidance Software, HDI Worldwide, Hitachi Data Systems, HP, Huawei, Hyperion Solutions, Juniper Networks, Linux, Lotus, McData, NCR Teradata, Network Appliance, Network General Corp., Nokia, Nortel, Novell, OMG, SAIR, SAS, SNIA, Sybase, Symantec, Tibco, VMware and so on...
All these corporates provide Associate level,Professional Level and Expert Level certifications in various domains like Programming, Networking, Desktop Administration, Desktop Publishing, Multimedia, Data Security, Network Security, Database Administration, Virtualisation and so on...
Furthermore certification details can be found in Pearson Vue and Prometric sites.
Though these certifications are costly, the knowledge gain is very high and is very useful...
The benefits are
1. Practical knowledge over a particular domain can be obtained
2. International Identity
3. Provisions to learn new things about the latest technologies
4. Direct Interaction with the Global Technical Giants.
Hope, this post may be helpful to atleast some budding engineers. For any guidance regarding International Certification, feel free to contact me.
