How do you create the perfect e-Business solution if you don't even know where to begin?
The EC-Council certification program is designed to address this problem. It has established universal set of standards on which human resource departments can rely. E-Business web-related work is gaining recognition as a distinct profession, and it is being compensated accordingly. A recent Computerworld survey found that the average compensation for a E-Commerce consultant is over $75,000. A similar 2001 survey by the American Electronics Association showed that e-Business consultants may earn significantly more than their counterparts in other high-tech industries. E-Business professionals with project management skills are in the highest demand and are the most highly compensated.
The EC-Council certification, is based on definitions of job functions and skill sets in the three key areas: technical, content management, and business management. These definitions have been developed by a broad coalition of industry and academic experts, and the skill set definitions have been adopted by the U.S. Department of Labor. In the technical area, skill sets include such topics as Customer Relationship Management, e-Procurement, Supply Chain Management, Business Process Re-engineering. Web business management includes principles of finance, legal issues, project management, and cyber marketing as they apply to E-Commerce web-related activities.
