Flexible Semester Certifications

    Hello, due to financial difficulties I was not capable of finding suitable work placement for the flexible semester so that leaves the option of the Certifications. I understand I need to do 3 Adobe Certs and the Oracle Java Associates Cert but I was wondering about the actual procedure of Applying for these exams as well as where Materials for these exams can be found.

    I am starting the semester is about a week and I have tried getting in contact with the FS coordinator but no response as of yet, any advice or help is greatly appreciated and more then welcome.

    EDIT #1:Forgot to mention I am doing the Multimedia Applications Development Course

    I did Erasmus for my flex semester but from what I heard, you apply for the course yourself and then show your pass cert when you receive it and that is the semester passed.

    Hmm alright thats some information on it, it is a bit of a pain there is no information on the cert option or how you go down it so it is a bit of relief because I was getting rather nervous

    They do really advise you to either get work placement or go on Erasmus, Certs are supposed to be the last option. Not that I am judging or anything but WIT would probably be assuming at this stage you are still looking for work placement if you haven't found one yet.

    I'd believe it, I am still looking but I missed a big window having to work over summer :/

    You'd still find something if you aren't being picky and are flexible.
