Obtaining certification in any (or all) of the Microsoft Office Suite applications provides an individual with a great distinction from others when pursuing employment or seeking career advancement. Not only will an individual obtain valuable knowledge and skill sets, but the newly acquired skills no matter the industry, can be applied to one's current position or towards the application of a new position.

Owner of TAB Training & Consulting Acquires New Certification

Please share in my recent accomplishment, as I continue to pursue the goal of TAB Training & Consulting becoming the #1 provider of Microsoft Office Application Certification Training to the residents of inner-city communities throughout the continental United States. I recently added the distinction of becoming a Microsoft Certified Trainer to go along with the other certifications previously acquired. These credentials include, Certiport Professional Instructor (CPI), Microsoft Certified Application Specialist (MCAS - Office 2007) Master Instructor, Microsoft Office Specialist Master Instructor (MOSMI - Office 2003) and an IC3 Authorized Program Instructor.

I am starting this blog to help educate and share information on the importance of using technology (specifically Microsoft Office Suite applications) as a means for developing a person's human capital. This enhancement in human capital leads to increased efficiency and productivity.
