Guide to becoming a Certified Mac Professional

@TD: I'm in the UK, London to be precise. Five of us at the school where I work are now ACSAs (Apple Certified System Administrators) following on-site training from http://www.xplorit.co.uk/ . I would recommend them without hesitation, perhaps you might look them up?

#2: Thanks for pointing out another resource this article appeared at, but I found this through del.icio.us popular bookmarks, in which case I would have to cite a few hundred sources.

And as a matter of fact, if you take a look at my posts in particular:

http://www.tuaw.com/bloggers/david-chartier/

you'll see I'm more than happy to cite my sources. I'm a firm believer in blogging as a practice and a philosophy, which openly embraces the fact that the internet is fueled by the '6 degrees of everything' concept, and I'm happy to point to others and give credit when and where credit is due.

I hope this clears up any confusion.

David, you seem to be the only TUAW writer that doesn't cite the source of things you fine. In this case it was probably digg. (http://digg.com/apple/How_to_Become_a_Certified_Mac_Professional )

Citing sources does two things.

1) It give a little respect to people who find or post about interesting things.
2) It gives your readers ideas of sites to visit that they might enjoy.

Its a b**ch if you live in England though.

I started on this path and deceided to go for the mcse instead. but i may go back to school in asense and get this. i fix macs maybe once a week so my work won't pay for all that is required. Those apple training books for helpdesk and system administrators are awesome! even if you are not going to take the tests, I lvoe those books.
