I recently earned my webmaster certification online from NCSA. The certification process was a bit different from the other online certifications NCSA offers as there are some prerequisites required to unlock the final webmaster exam. The prerequisites include HTML 4.0 and JavaScript and one of the following:
ColdFusion 4.5
ColdFusion MX
ASP .Net
PHP
Once you have completed the prerequisites the final webmaster certification exam will be unlocked. The exam contains only 20 questions covering general webmaster resources and concepts. The prerequisites ensure that you have at basic skills in creating a site and handling both client and server side processing. Having the NCSA webmaster credential is a reasonably inexpensive way to add some formal educational experience and flesh out your resume for those that are self taught. If you already have the knowledge and skills and just need a little documentation like me, this should be just what the doctor ordered.
