I have been considering Microsoft certification for quite some time now to show on my resume.

- What online school or college do you recommend?
- What will I be looking at for cost?

*I am needing access/sql/database training.

I also see code project has an ad from [DELETED] to learn Microsoft products for $49. Can I get Certified through [DELETED]? Does that $49 cover certification or at least lead me to a point where I can get certified through them? There's really no place to ask questions on that site. But most importantly are my two questions above.

Thank you very much in advance!

Sorry, this is off-topic question. How the certification, and especially all its bureaucratic aspects, can be related to the topics of this forum: computer science, software development and related fields?

Word of advice, you don't need school or collage.
You see you can just choose the desired MCP certificate path, prepare for it and then find out where in your city you can go about doing Microsoft certification exams.

That is how I did it, also the preparations is not that difficult, you can find a lot of resources on the internet.
For example for your SQL requirements you can check out this SQL coding tests. Actually if you achieve good score on that test you can even get a free programming certificate.
