The problem I have is that people can explain things quickly but I can only comprehend slowly.

Hello,

If you are not yet a DB2 expert, you should not yet become certified. . .

Certification without qualification is one of the worst things happening in our industry.
Hope this helps,

I have been working on DB2 for past 2 years, and over 4 years of experience in Mainframe(Vision Plus).
It will be a great help if i get to know the first level certification in DB2.

Thanks!!

There were plenty of others as well. You just have to go through them and see what takes your fancy and then get in contact with the organisations to see if they are exactly what you want.
The problem I have is that people can explain things quickly but I can only comprehend slowly.

If you are a developer..better go for 700 Certification(DB2 8) for Db9 i guess it is (732)..Its the basic fundamental certification..I do have its syllabus.If you require,let me know.
