ok if your just looking desktop and portable certs go to apples website and buy there technican training kit. After you have studied that google prometric. Prometric is a world wide testing company that deals in certifications they do the apple tests. that will get you your ACPT ACDT if you wish to go farther then that go to the apple website for your contry. go to support > training and it will show you what classes and where the classes are offered in your area.\n\nCongradualtions on deciding to get apple certified. \n\nI wish you luck and hope to see you in the apple certification alliance soon.\n\nsorry forgot to tell you fees. the fees are 150 - 190 us. I am in canada and they still charge me us dont know why. the class i told you to buy off apple cost me 400 canadian. the classes i took at apple for my help desk ACHDS cost 1200 canadian and my technical cordinator ACTC cost 2400 for the class. i have to take 3 test and 3 classes to get my ACSA i am working on right now and after the classes and tests in total that will cost me about 8000 canadian 250 per tests 2400 per class. \n\nKEEP IN MIND your certifications run out and you will have to rewrite the tests. The ACDT ACPT run out ever 12 months ACTC 24 ACSA 24 months the ACHDS will not run out but will retire meaning your certification will be ACHDS v10.4 so when mac osx 10.5 comes out that certification you hold needs to be updated even though it hasnt run out

Kazakhstan has joined the hage convention and it is in effect since 2001  ,the process shall be easy for you , .\nif the certificate was issued in kazakhstan and was to be sent to india , then you would have to put an apostille in the ministry of education of the rep. of kazakhstan.this link might be of help for you .\nhttp://www.indembassy.kz/index.html

Wow!  Acer .. there's a name I haven't heard in awhile.  It didn't know they were still being made.  I used to have a hardware cert on Acer's (among others).\n\nWhen I was working as a bench tech for a systems integrator, we sold quite a few Acers.  However, they were typically considered a second or third tier system. IBM, Apple, and Compaq were 1st tier.  But, that was 15 years ago, so they may have worked on their quality and support issues.\n\nAs with any manufacturer, you can get a real peach from a questionable company .. and a real lemon from a stellar company.\n\nPersonally, I would probably still go with one of the major names based on reputation, interior parts, and service.  But, if I needed to stick to a budget, then I might consider some other alternatives and check out what the IT world is saying about other companies in the areas that are important to me.

From Business Week:\n\nApple has shelved plans to build a sprawling offshore technical support center in Bangalore. Just months ago, there was talk of Apple employing 3,000 workers by 2007 who would handle technical and customer-service support for Macintosh computers and other Apple gear in India and elsewhere. There was even speculation that Jobs would travel to India in the fall to publicize Apple's commitment to the country.\n\nIt wasn't meant to be, and a small, newly hired staff of about 30 at Apple's subsidiary in Bangalore was let go recently. (The company will maintain a small sales and marketing arm in the city.) Apple spokesman Steve Dowling would only say the company had "reevaluated our plans" and decided to focus support center activities in other countries.\n\nSOME QUESTIONS.  However, another source familiar with the situation said the decision was mostly cost-driven. "India isn't as inexpensive as it used to be," the source said. "The turnover is high, and the competition for good people is strong." The company feels it "can do it more efficiently elsewhere."\n\nSuch talk comes amid concerns about the sustainability of India's fast-track economy. True, India's economy grew 9.3% last quarter, and it is still home to the world's largest, fasting-growing offshore outsourcing sector, which generates about $17.3 billion in revenues and employs nearly 700,000 people, according to the McKinsey Global Institute. And Indian outfits such as Infosys (INFY) and Tata are among the best-managed companies in the emerging markets.\n\nYet India's benchmark stock Sensitive Index, or Sensex, experienced a mini-crash in late May as global investors fled from emerging market stocks (see BW Online, 5/23/06, "India's Market Turns Down the Heat").\n\nINDIAN BRAINPOWER.  And India's fabled infrastructure headaches and surprisingly robust wage growth have also raised worries about India's undisputed leadership as a business outsourcing Mecca. Entry-level wages have climbed by as much as 13% annually from 2000 to 2004, while salaries for mid-level managers have registered increases of 30% annually during the same period, to a median of $31,131, according to McKinsey and Nasscom, India's software industry association.\n\nHowever, while the Apple move certainly will generate plenty of media attention -- "Apple Software Logs Out of India," proclaimed a headline from the Times of India -- it may be a special case. Apple has certainly utilized Indian engineering brainpower in the past. Part of the electronic circuitry that powers the iPod was developed by a research outfit in Hyderabad, for instance.\n\nYet for the Bangalore operation, Jobs never had any intention of outsourcing any high-end software development and proprietary technology research away from the company's Cupertino headquarters or operations nearby, according to the source familiar with Apple's operations in India.\n\nSTRATEGIC TIE-UP.  Also, while wages for software engineers and IT project managers have soared, entry level wages for call-center employees are still an affordable $2,500 or so per year. Apple had only a staff about 30 at its Bangalore operation, but "you need economies of scale, say 500," to generate huge savings for a company, says Sunil Mehta, vice-president of Nasscom. Unlike rivals such as IBM-Lenovo, Dell (DELL), and Hewlett Packard (HPQ) that have a huge base of personal computer customers, Apple's Mac market share is far lower, undercutting the justification for a huge customer service center on the ground in India.\n\nThe Bangalore operation also seemed redundant given that on May 29 Apple announced a strategic tie-up with New Delhi-based HCL Infosystems to provide distribution and after-service care for Apple's phenomenally successful iPod line. HCL has a tremendous distribution and service footprint in the country and

If not good in programming, there would be several sales, marketing jobs in IT sector. You can also join in the presales division of any vertical e.g.banking, manufacturing, retail etc.\nNot that every IT job is related to programming.

Yes but it's freakin expensive. I have one at school and it cost about $1 million (SGD) to install.\n\n(SGD means Singapore dollars, so you'll have to convert it to whatever your local currency is.)
