The typical profile of a database-administrator or developer is somebody who is amazingly precise, is well disciplined & methodical, and can work efficiently both alone or together with a small team. They often work with higher or senior management, & so require advanced communication-skills. Managing business databases is definitely a position of responsibility - and safety and security is constantly getting to be a larger subject in this area. A high level of personal ethic & professional reliability will undoubtedly be asked for - and in a number of areas you may be asked for some form of security-clearance. Those who have previously worked in business-processing or accountancy typically succeed in Database Management. A number of DBA's obtain successful promotions to higher office since they intrinsically develop their business management skill-sets.

Any program that you're going to undertake should always lead to a widely recognised accreditation as an end-goal - not a useless 'in-house' plaque for your wall. From an employer's perspective, only the major heavyweights such as Microsoft, CompTIA, Adobe or Cisco (for example) really carry any commercial clout. Nothing else will cut the mustard.

A ridiculously large number of organisations only look at the plaque to hang on your wall, and completely miss why you're doing this - which is of course employment. Your focus should start with the final destination in mind - don't make the journey more important than where you want to get to. It's possible, in many cases, to get a great deal of enjoyment from a year of study and then spend 20 miserable years in a tiresome job role, simply because you did it without the correct level of soul-searching when you should've - at the outset.

You must also consider your leanings around earning potential, career development, plus your level of ambition. It makes sense to understand what (if any) sacrifices you'll need to make for a particular role, what particular certifications are needed and how you'll gain real-world experience. Long before starting a training programme, trainees are advised to chat over individual career needs with an industry professional, to make sure the retraining course covers everything needed.
