Web Development & Design suggestion.

[3RR0R]

Don't know is this the right place to post this but as you ARE the geeks so I am posting.


I am new in the web design and development field.
I need your suggestion to build my career in this field.
I need:

1. A good certificate approving me as developer.
2. A good place where I can talk with professionals (like a forum.)
3. A good place where I can get jobs.

(..............as I am in India, I need to do all these things over INTERNET................)

-please help.

1. Microsoft Certification (MCP) as a web developer is typically a safe bet, widely recognised - though expect to pay for your exams (these are usually conducted in person at an exam centre, maybe there are some in your area).
2. I'm sure you've heard of http://www.stackoverflow.com, it's not too uncommon for people to be hired/contacted for work on their stackexchange merits alone. Also it helps you to keep up-to-date with the latest practices/technologies in web development.
3. Know next to nothing about telecommunting I'm afraid, assuming that is what you're after?
