finding suitable employment

That may mean finding suitable employment, that may mean getting a new credential or certification, it may mean a degree path. But in all instances, what we want to do is create an environment in which Missourians can succeed, Missourians can flourish, and Missourians can achieve the level of prosperity that they feel they deserve.

Bob Dirkes: Do you feel the “tech skills gap” in Missouri?
Mardy: We absolutely do.
If you can look at it, you can say, "Okay, 67% of all the jobs available today in Missouri require some sort of digital skill set." If you go out and you look at Burning Glass, or some other [job posting] platform, you see the word “Microsoft” or “Microsoft Excel” and “Microsoft Word” in probably 80% of the job openings that are out there. It's a skillset that's required.
We understand that our jobs are becoming more digitized, which means we need a new level or new type of skill set. I think in Missouri, what that means, though, is not just saying, "Okay. Employers have a need. Our job is to respond to it," but tie it back to again to how are we helping Missourians grow?

Reasons You Should Care About CompTIA A+

If you’re not already convinced that CompTIA A+ is a great way to launch your IT career, listen to what Zach Hill of I.T. Career Questions has to say. When the CompTIA A+ Core Series (220-1001/220-1002) launched earlier this year, he identified five things that excite him about the certification and why he thinks it’s relevant to today’s entry-level IT jobs, like help desk technician and technical support specialist. "In my opinion, CompTIA has really raised the bar with the new A+ certification,” Hill said in his video. “They have set a new standard while still keeping in mind that this exam is designed and developed for those who are seeking entry-level job roles.” Highlights of the CompTIA A+ Core Series Scripting: You won’t need to become a programmer or know coding inside and out, but you’ll need to understand the basics of how scripting works and the principles of scripting language. Cybersecurity: The CompTIA A+ Core Series has increased its coverage of cybersecurity, incl

DDoS for hire services

The service is also offering 5%, 7%, 10% and 15% discounts to prospective customers, with a return policy based on the remaining time from the originally purchased package. The service profiled in this post, is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the overall availability of DDoS for hire managed services within the cybercrime ecosystem. This fierce competition prompts for unique client acquisition tactics, such as offering complete anonymity throughout the purchasing and post-purchasing process in order to ensure that anyone can request any target, including high profile ones, to be attacked. Moreover, although the service is undermining the OPSEC (operational security) of the proposition by advertising on public forums, the business model of the competition is often driven by invite-only sales, where prospective customers are trusted and verified as hardcore cybercriminals with a significant credibility within the cybercrime ecosystem. These competing services even offer the po

Develop Your Best Tech Partners

Success in the tech industry doesn’t come easy. You need the right solutions, the right salespeople, the right marketers. But to really gain traction in the market, you need a deep pool of partners—solution providers, MSPs, integrators, etc.—capable of acting as an extended sales force for your products and services. Building a broad, deep of talent partners requires a well-thought-out strategy because partners come in all shapes and sizes and treating them all equally is likely to end up frustrating you, your partners, and ultimately your customers. To help tech vendors better understand the dynamics of a strong partner base, CompTIA has developed a series of training programs, Channel Account Manager (CAM) Training 101 for beginners, and CAM Training 201 for more advanced channel management initiatives. The programs are available for free to all CompTIA corporate members, but they’re also available to non-members for a fee as well. More Info: comptia certified jobs
