Benefits of Hiring a Fiber Optic Certified Professional

Updated: February 20, 2007

FiberOptic.com certification helps organizations improve performance. Here's how.
A November 2006 IDC* study found that team performance increases when each new team member becomes certified. Every time.

The study says:
For each new team member certified, team performance increases every time.
The level of skill that a team has is directly responsible for how an organization performs in several key IT functional areas.
When you increase the concentration of Microsoft certified team members on a team, you directly affect team performance.
Top performing teams on average are shown to have between 40 percent and 55 percent certified Microsoft team members who are trained on relevant Microsoft technologies and processes.
75 percent of managers believe that certifications are important to team performance.
66 percent of managers believe that certifications improve the level of service and support offered to IT end-users and customers.

"…for each additional member of a team certified, team performance increases. Whether the increase is from 37 percent to 38 percent of the team being certified or from 60 percent to 61 percent of the team, the team performance increases overall. "
