I am working in IT and some of my colleagues are talking about getting certifications for a particular domain within our field of work. These certifications are expensive and requires time and effort. So are they worth getting?

    In my opinion the actual cert is not worth pursuing unless you’re trying to negotiate a promotion or find a new job.

    Now if your employer is willing to pay for it great. (But I stopped paying for such things out of my own pocket.)

    But the knowledge is what’s valuable. You can study nearly anything in the IT field for free.
