The problem with today's employers is that they think having many degrees, diplomas and certifications is a guarantee that the holder is a good performer. In today's work place, the employee has mastered the fact that when the get many qualifications, they are guaranteed to a good and high profile office with a good salary and benefits. So many youths are spending more time on books and ignoring the aspect of creativity and innovativeness. What this means is that more employees are working mechanically and adding no value to their employers thus not helping the companies to grow. At least in Africa, this concept is so alive and is suffocating organization growth and development. In my opinion, books are only desirable in settings of a "Research and Development" base.
In my opinion that holding a professional certification can prove that the person has the minimum standard of KSA , may be some employees are having a wider experience in the area they are specialized in , but also they may not have the minimum knowledge in some areas which they didn't face in their job ! certifications can prove the person have the minimum abilities and knowledge needed to fill a particular job in all it's areas with help of training and coaching...
Let's be realistic, certifications and diplomas are not what they used to be.
Every one heard about Certifications Dumps used but the majority of trainees that make the certifications and diplomas
The qualifications, experience are the major actors in work performance, the certifications are a formal procedure for this generation and as we know evrry time you formalize something, it loses its value
