Career and Job Training Readiness Center

I’ve been reading a lot lately about IC3 Certification, and it’s certainly something to consider if you are in the job market right now, especially if you are trying to move up the employment ladder from unskilled or low-skilled jobs to better paying positions.

IC3 is an organized way to show employers that you’ve got basic computer skills such as would be needed in an office or to utilize online trainings that have become so popular.  Many community colleges and some high schools are registered testing centers, and some offer inexpensive preparation courses.  There are also self-study books available, but you should avoid the temptation of purchasing an older edition to save money.  This is one area where the most current information will help you immensely.

The most comprehensive and yet inexpensive reference book I’ve found so far is posted below.  In the interest of full disclosure, this is an affiliate link to Amazon, and I do receive a small payment if you choose to order.
