I have a cursory knowledge of databases and computer hardware and software.
I really want to make a carreer change and I am interested in database
design and administration. I have a high school level education, and 15
years of working for myself in sales and running a real estate holding
company. I am wondering if I can get the education I need from" Tech
Skills", a trade school focusing ongetting the certifications like A+, MCP,
MCDBA, ORacle , etc. Again, Im starting from scratch here, but I love
learning. Is this a good route as far aspreparing me to enter the IT field?
Is there a better one? I know a degree may be more desirable, but it is also
loaded with classes on things I really dont want to take, as well as a
difficult schedule for me as I am raising a family of 5 and must continue to
work. Suggestions and opinions are appreciated
