    There is currently a voucher on groupon that gives access to a database and programming course online for 12 months. Originally €2,400 now €89. I am really interested in studying in these areas as I have done a basic database course and really enjoyed it.

    I have pasted the description of the course below and the certs gained as listed on the groupon, if anyone could tell me if they would be attract to an employer I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

    Go for it if your interested in it. Always looks good on a CV if you have certs and you did them on your own steam.
    I just did the 70-461, not very difficult, but there is a lot to it. Going to finish of the mcsa is the next few months
