You need B.Tech/BE still even if you do Adobe Certification!! Otherwise you won't get jobs any where, unless you want to start up your own stuff.

^^i concur that.

Having a traditional education is always helpful

[Whistler81]

Yes, by saying that i need a b.tech or b.e you mean i need to be a Graduate. i was thinking of joining IGNOU for my graduation and do the courses along side... it would be really helpful if i could know the salaries the respective jobs offer in india and outside.

unless you have a fulltime college degree it is an himalayan task to find a decent job even if you have exceptional skills. period.

I think u should take up a degree course and then maybe u can take the adobe courses for flex and flash. And let me tell u my frnd flex developers hv a gr8 demand nowadays.

touché @DigitalDude .. You know friend of mine got Maya and other anime trainings after 12th. He still struggling with 4-5k salary at media houses.

Ya, as far as i know if you don't do Maya from MaaC[Maya Academy of Advanced Cinematic] you have hardly any chances of landing in a good place. As for me i understood that graduation is a MUSt and so i will be joining a graduation ourself and then do certification course along side. Happy Christmas and New Year.
