CP1 confined spaces entry
CDM regs - Construction Design Management
OS19 and 21 - Pipeline and Brick survey coding
PTS (AC & DCCR) - Trackside working on Railways
A pretty limiting set, really.
There are some jobs I could just walk into, but they pay about half what I'd get as a Saturday Boy in Tesco...

Other than degree I have several level 4 NVQs and 1 level 5 NVQ as well as having my APM qualification.
Yes, it is. I was making the point that IT qualifications are, by no means, the be all and end all of a career in IT.
Viva la revolution!

Load of ITIL stuff (really should get around to taking the MALC)
Plenty of old SQL/Wintel stuff that is no longer relevant

Degree
ITIL from a few years ago. Failed the exam twice as it was pointless to me and I found it boring. Paid for by the employer at the time so I didn't care.
NVQ in ICT
Got an SCCM course in 2 weeks paid for by my current employer. Doubt I will take the exam as I will be starting MCSA for Windows 10 once they release the materiel which I will pay for myself.

Not got a single IT qualification to my name. I can legitimately call myself an engineer though which can be entertaining when that old argument crops up.

Academic qualifications BEng (Hons) Software Engineering, yes.
Professional certifications, none. My poor addled brain doesn't quite understand why I would need to whore myself to a vendor qualified instruction. No thanks.

Non-IT stuff, all finance related:
My official name when I get correspondence from the IFS is:
Mr B Dee CeMAP CeRCC CeSRE AdvCeMAP DipMAP
I choose to just use DipMAP as it is the diploma level qualification and I would look like a bit of a **** if I used them all. Planning on doing a couple more too when time allows.

No-one said they were, so your point is moot. Feel free to start your own "what degree have you got" thread.
There are many vendor neutral certifications in the world.
