greggles:
Before I go ahead let me introduce myself. I am a certified database administrator and a professional website developer. I am a startup business owner with a small clientele but I am looking forward to expand to become bigger in the nearest future, but......

Is it only me feeling this or do other IT Professionals feel the same way? Are we neglecting IT in this country? We are supposed to be the technology drive force of this country but it seems most of us are struggling getting our feet stable on the ground. When I talk about IT Professionals, I mean the core ones who have either certified or undergone a certain degree of training in fields like Database Administration, website and mobile apps development, Programming and software development, systems audit, network administration, hardware maintenance and engineering etc.

I need answers, what is the future of IT in Nigeria? We see entertainment and agriculture growing in the country but I feel IT is completely neglected

It is my understanding that many IT professionals go into the field to be self employed or consultants, so they are entrepreneurs by this measure, but why can't we access loans and startup credit facility to establish our own companies and build on what we already have invested lots of money in? It costs a lot of money to get trained in IT so I think we deserve some credit and empowerment from government

I need answers and suggestions please. Thank You.

I am expertise in IT infrastructure and network architecture.
You made a point right there boss.

You bet the neglect of IT sector is one of the causes of stunted technological advancement in the country.

Thanks a Million

abilities required of a senior system administrator

systems.

Now back to your question..its a nice one.
It gives you an edge as it is an added advantage.

Nice thread

Hi what knowledge do you wanna share with the house

The electronic cigarette is also known as the E-Cigarettes

Research into the effects of e-cigarettes lags behind their popularity. But ready or not, the era of e-cigarettes is here. It’s a booming, billion-dollar industry -- on track to outsell tobacco products within a decade. The number of teens and tweens using these products doubled between 2011 and 2012.

How E-Cigarettes Work
They look like the real thing. The end glows as you inhale. As you
exhale, you puff out a cloud of what looks like smoke. It's vapor,
similar to the fog you might see at rock shows, says M. Brad Drummond, MD. He's an assistant professor of medicine at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
All e-cigarettes work basically the same way. Inside, there's a battery, a heating element, and a cartridge that holds nicotine and other liquids and flavorings. Features and costs vary. Some are disposable. Others have a rechargeable battery and refillable cartridges.
Using an e-cigarette is called "vaping."

Questions we keep asking is are vapers liable to die young?

debbie:
Is this a common practice with telecoms? or some companies will tend to overlook the experience? my problem with telecom and IT companies is that alot of them consider certification against the real experience when they are recruiting....which is not always good

For me i think that CCNA and CCNP comes handy at entry level.....but the CCIE is more like experienced based.i stand to be corrected though
cheers

You right from an angle.

The reason telcom coys require those Cisco certifications is cause it gives requisite about the tekcom industry.
Getting these certifications ain't cheap.
But being unemployed ain't funny
