I've just recently changed my major to computer programming. I spent 2 1/2 yrs studying in the medical field...then realized that I'm not the most compasionate person out there...lol. I'de much rather be a bit of a hermit and deal with computers...rather than a slew of hypochondriac patients. The program I'm in is just a 2 year programming degree..but it's a start. Can anyone give me some advice as to where to go from there?...like..what kind of certifications are out there..and how to go for them? Also, I would like to know what all kinds of jobs there are for someone who is a computer programmer. If you are a computer programmer and have any helpful info...please let me know. Thanks...
