Worried About your Best Course in this Economic Meltdown?               
 
This is a question that has been on a lot of minds lately. Throughout my discussions with decision 
makers and IT professionals, the underlying concern is strong. While decision makers are asking 
questions like "How can I prepare for a potential slowdown in my business", IT professionals are 
grappling with the possibility of layoffs if companies look to trim workforce in a bid to reduce costs. 
The axiom that companies must do more with less has never been truer, and technology remains one of 
the best ways for companies to increase productivity. Most companies never use the technologies they 
already own to the full potential, simply because employees don't know how to. Training employees on 
how to use technology effectively can give a huge boost to productivity, enabling employees to do more 
in less time. 
 
IT professionals must continually upgrade their skills to stay current in their fields and keep themselves 
marketable. If history is to be trusted, times like these are the most critical for individuals to advance 
their skills. When the tech bubble burst, a lot of IT professionals found themselves competing against 
skilled and experienced workers. The market was flooded with talent and only the skilled survived. One 
constant is that history does repeat itself. When it comes to the single thing that makes you stand out 
when you are competing against those with equal experience, the simple answer is certifications. A third 
party endorsement that proves that you really know what you say you know goes a long way towards keeping you on the shortlist. 
 
Each year, NetCom empowers thousands of individuals and corporations with the necessary tools to 
better utilize technology and advance their skills. At NetCom, our passion is learning.
