Certifications – which one? when?

by my3sons . Updated 25 years ago

I quit my job about one month ago to take care of a problem with my 17 year old son. As previous discussions have indicated on this site, “if you are not learning you are dying” – that was my last position. I have a variety of experience from NT, Novell, SQL server, AS/400, Lotus Notes, desktops, written some scripts, worked as a technical writer on web pages . . . When I was working with NT a lot, I attended all of the MCSE classes for NT 4, but did not take the tests due to the upgrade pass/fail issue and then I moved on to Lotus Notes and AS400s. How do you determine which certification to get? Or, should I wait for my next position and then determine which certification will be important? Should I be trying to get certified whileI am trying to get a job? Is it good to have a variety of skills like I presently have or to focus in one area?
