Digital Literacy : 21st Century Student & Workforce DevelopmentCTC Tec
Digital literacy does not replace traditional forms of literacy. It builds upon the foundation of traditional forms of literacy.[1] Digital literacy is the marrying of the two terms digital and literacy; however, it is much more than a combination of the two terms. Digital information is a symbolic representation of data, and literacy refers to the ability to read for knowledge, write coherently, and think critically about the written word.

Businesses are investing in IT to help leverage existing resources more thoroughly and find hidden nuggets to put to use. For this reason, there are now more jobs in the IT field than we've seen in quite a few years. It’s that inevitable fork in the road for an IT professional. As a result, a lot of folks are starting to take another look at the IT field as a career choice. What are employers looking for? Certifications? Experience? Degrees? Some combination of the three? Which is more valuable? The answer to these questions depends upon many factors. After all, not all IT certifications or college degrees or job experiences are the same.

2. Certification
Certification is a third-party validation of skills-based knowledge.
Microsoft recognizes this individual as having a specialist-level of skill in a given
Microsoft Office application. MOS certifications are global and industry-recognized.
Microsoft Office Specialist certifications do not expire, but only apply to the suite in
which the exam was taken. (e.g. Microsoft Office 2010)
3. • Achieve industry-recognized certification
• Learn the computing and productivity skills companies are
looking for
• Boost your workforce resume, and build a college transcript
• Gain valuable experience and confidence
• Enhance your higher education prospects
• Prepare yourself for a successful future
Certification gives you tools to build a
brighter future
Why Become Certified?
Teachers also earn Microsoft
certifications as part of their
Professional Development!
4. “…. The purpose of any professional
certification is to provide official and public
recognition of an individual's competencies
and capabilities in a professional subject
area….”
“….Certification programs ensure technical
competence through a tangible measurement
of skills and knowledge. Certification exams go
beyond training by providing an objective
measurement of a professional’s knowledge
and skills. Certification programs establish
standards in developing a qualified
workforce….”

7. The Key to a Good Paying Job Could be Excel
• “Want a job that promises a living wage and a good shot at a middle-class life? Learn
Microsoft Excel and other basic digital skills.”*

• The most promising in terms of pay and job creation, including occupations in healthcare, technology, and
operations.
• The most commonly required skills are spreadsheet and word-processing software such as Microsoft Word and
Excel.
• Excel expertise has become critical for office and administrative positions, retail supervisors, and store managers,
among other jobs.**
• Sixty-seven percent of middle-skill jobs demand proficiency with these tools.
• “Effectively, entire segments of the U.S. economy are off-limits to people who don’t have basic digital skills,” the
report notes.
• Positions that require basic digital skills tend to pay 13% more than jobs that require no digital skills: median pay
of $22.66 per hour versus $20.14 per hour. *Burning Glass

11. Microsoft Technology Professional
• Microsoft (MCSE, MCITP, MCTS)
• Among Microsoft's most popular certifications are Microsoft Certified
Systems Engineer (MCSE), Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist
(MCTS), and the relatively entry-level Microsoft Certified IT
Professional (MCITP).
12. Microsoft Technology Professional
• The requirements for MCSE certification are one to two years of experience
in designing, installing, configuring, and troubleshooting network systems,
and a passing mark on an $875 test. Median pay for an IT manager with
MCSE certification is $77,000, according to PayScale.com.
• MCITP requires two years as an IT pro, and passing marks on one to five
exams, priced at $125 each. There are 12 MCITP tracks, and pay for an IT
specialist or consultant ranges from $47,000 to $70,000.
• MCTS accreditation requires two years of background in troubleshooting
specific technology.
15. Microsoft Skills Makes a Difference
• It is not enough merely to understand which occupations will be high
growth and high salary; today's educators must impart the skills that will
be required for those jobs, too. To determine those skills, IDC examined
14.6 million job postings between April and September 2013 from 25,000
job boards and staffing companies' corporate Web sites.
• The only software package called out within the top 20 skills across all
occupations was Microsoft Office, ranking #3 in top skills.

MOS certification gives you tools to build a brighter future
It’s not just another test, it is a credential that you can add credibility to your knowledge of the Office application
A report released Thursday by Burning Glass Technologies, a labor-market analysis firm that reviewed millions of job postings to understand which skills companies expect workers to have. The report focuses on middle-skill jobs – roles that require a high school diploma but not necessarily a college degree.

Surveys that have been conducted over the years, confirm that a certification has weight to job applications.
A story that was conveyed to my be Certiport. Small business woman conducted interviews which required a knowledge base of Word and PowerPoint. The person she interviewed stated that she was proficient in both Word and PowerPoint. This person was hired based upon her interview. She was let go few weeks later due to her lack of skill sets in Word and PowerPoint. This small business woman will now only hire someone with a MS Office Certification.
