Well, it’s been
another great year for the Babbage Simmel
staff and alumni. We did tons of
training and certification testing this year, with Visual Studio
taking the crown for the most trained subject.
We taught twice as many Visual Studio courses in 2012 as the runner up
for subject of the year, SharePoint
2010. Now Visual Studio did have a
slight advantage as both the 2008 and 2012 versions of the software were still
being taught and in demand.
Windows 7,
Project
Management and System
Center all finished pretty dead even in a respectable third place. System Center, however, didn’t really get its
legs until the second half of 2012, and it’s been the most popular class over
the last couple of months. I look for
this trend to continue into 2013 giving System Center a great chance to be our
most popular class next year. It was a
pretty good year for Windows
Server as well, although most of
that was the 2008 version. It looks like
Windows Server 2012 could be pretty big next year, and another solid contender.
All and all
it was a fantastic year for IT training.
The industry has picked back up again, and all signs point to more
growth in hiring percentage and training budgets in 2013. I also wanted to mention a couple classes
coming up in early January that only have a couple seats left.

Do yourself
a favor and start the year off right!
We hope you
all have a very safe and fun holiday season.
See you next
year!
