Value of Certification: Risk Management

Although the post is admittedly a bit old, the message is still valid today:

"In a world where risk management and business continuity planning are essential pursuits for any healthy IT organization, every asset needs to be defined and monitored, and that includes technical skills. There's no better way to accomplish that than through a consistent, well-conceived means of documenting who has what skills. And that means certification."
