So there. Since yesterday, 11 am, the Coaote officially is a Certified Software Engineer. And I did this as a blind user, the exams being just the same as for normaly sighted students.

The key part of this is not that I am now a software engineer, I've been that for most of my adult life, but that I am now certified :) according to the German IHK, full title is: IHK geprüfter Fachinformatiker Anwendungsentwicklung.

A wee bit proud this makes me.

Congrats, Coyote. The best part is the title no one can pronounce. It sounds mysterious and important from my side of the lake.

Well done Guru Coyote ! ! !

Congratulations on your new qualifications. I hope you can claim a pay rise now ;-).

As for the pronounciation, it is manageable, on the second or third try :).

All the best.

Thanks everyone!

I've had the qualification for some time, as in work experience. I was a freelance developer for many years. Now I have a title to show for it :)

Pay-rise-wiese... in that sense I am currently a certified unemployed, which is a step up from just unemployed, naturally. But there is one possible job, I'm waiting to hear their decision. Interview recently went very well.
