“Implementation of the CIW exams into WGU’s IT degree program went very smoothly — seamlessly in fact. No downtime, no disruptions. We do everything online, so it was simply a matter of identifying the assessments we liked, mapping the objectives, then arranging the exam vouchers, and we were done.”

“Before gaining a CIW certification, I had a dead-end job,” says Jonathan King. “However, after gaining a certification, I was offered the first Web developer job that I applied for. Ten years on and I now earn over three times as much annually than my previous non-career based job!”
