Certification targets smaller firms

Article Abstract:

Lotus Development Corp has created the new Certified Lotus Specialist (CLS) program to address the requirements of small and mid-sized businesses. The CLS program provides a technique for gauging the basic technical skills levels relating to the development and administration of Internet- and intranet-based solutions built around Lotus products. CLS Program Mgr Barbara Bowen noted that the CLS designation enables people who may not believe that they are 'technical,' in the traditional sense of the term, to learn and develop the necessary support skills.
