certificates worth a pay increase

[Boon72]

as the title suggests, i've just recently completed 2 Apple courses and past them (ACSP & ACTC) is this something I can ask for a pay increase for?

 

the courses were paid for by a client and not my work place as they have just gone Apple.

 

thanks in advance

if its a school you work for, be prepared to be milked... I don't think schools could give a dam these days. it just means they save more money on external contracts etc

[Little-Miss]

nope, i think they just expect you to have them...

there was no requirement to have them, they were a request by me to the client who i support

Not here am afraid we can have any certificate possible and no increase in salary. Least that seems to be the ruling for all support staff here.

You could try a teaching certificate, seems to work for some other school staff

 

Kidding aside I must echo the above comments as any school that I know of will just look at your additional qualifications as a free bonus for them.
