GIS Certification

[ANTONELLAGALETTO]

Hi all! I have been using ArcGIS for a long time, and now I need to get a GIS certification. I saw there are different types of certifications in the ESRI Website. Which would be the most general to start with? Are there special prep classes you thought it was wise to take, or did you just study and take it on your own? And lastly, do you think that ESRI is the most appropriate certification to have when looking for a GIS-Job?

Thank you very much for any information!

I just passed the GISP exam. I just have to get 6 more months of experience to get my GISP certification which will get me a small raise and put me first in line for a GIS administrator or manager position.

To study for the GISP exam, I listened to this Youtube channel on the drive to work... GISP Study

I also read this book..  The Ultimate GISP Exam Study Guide
