| Certification Salary Survey Results | |
Below are the salaries listed by Age, Geography, Education, and Gender. The results show that people on the West Coast make the most, as well as males, highly educated individuals, and those over 55.
Surprisingly the survey showed that your level of job satisfaction weighs heavily on the ability to command more money for your skills. Those who love their jobs make as much as $15,000 more than those who are highly unsatisfied with their positions. Does this mean that attitude and environment mean more than certification?
