Even a hitman deserves a Second Shot!

I’ve borrowed the title of this blog post from the tagline of  Grosse Pointe Blank. An excellent movie starring John Cusack and Minnie Driver. It’s all about a contract killer who is either in love with Minnie Driver or has a new found respect for life. If you haven’t seen it, then you must! The soundtrack has classics from the 80’s and the humour is very black.

Anyway, what does this have to do with technology? Well it’s April. The start of the new financial year and you now have only 3 months to take advantage of Microsoft’s Second Shot Offer. This is what provided a catalyst for me to get a “move-on” with my certifications as it provided a safety net in case of the dreaded “f word”.

There are two links to be aware of:

If you are a student/learner/faculty member of an academic institution; you can benefit from a 55% discount AND a Second Shot by registering here.

If you’re a standard IT Professional; no discount, I’m afraid, but still you get a Second Shot here.

Second Shot offer expires June 30 2010. Please read the above respective websites carefully.
