John, now it's an entirely different discussion. I would say the most
advanced cert for the hardware you have in the network. Cisco has
different levels of cert, so I would look for someone that has the Cisco
security certification. The prerequisites for that one are sufficient
that the engineer will know their stuff. VOIP is a separate animal, and
requires a separate cert. Also wrong list for this discussion. I'd
carry it over to the PC tech list.

Or are you talking about someone whose main responsibilities are the phone system and the network switches, routers, etc?

midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx John, Loaded question, but let's make
some assumptions. First: We are talking about a Power Systems engineer
and based on the list IBM i, correct? If so then I would recommend:
IBM test: 129 IBM i 7.1 Administration due out October 1 IBM Test: 121
Virtualization Technical Support for IBMi. That credential requires
the test taker to pass the Administrator test as well. Also due out
October 1. There are V6 versions of the Administration exam, the
virtualization exam is new at V7 If you get someone with the
virtualization technical support credential, from an IBM i
perspective, they will know their stuff. There are several SMEs that
monitor this list that help write the IBM certification exams, these
two exams included. Jim Oberholtzer Chief Technical Architect Agile
