Become and expert in a current technology and go into consulting.  For example, if you knew Ajax inside and out right now, nobody would care if you got past the 4th grade.\n\nAll these Certification programs are a scam.  It's not what you can display on your wall.  It's what you KNOW and what can DO in this industry.

They can do multiple things, they could be network admins, network designers, network consultants.  Chances of getting a job with just certifications are ok but would be much better if you added some secondary education like a community college or 4year university would be better.  Don't stop just at the smaller certifications.  If you want a good job try stepping up to the Cisco CCIE, Linux RH, or even try some HP server certifications.

The prospects are excellent. Your skill set sounds limited in terms of outright coding experience, but you would probably be able to find work through any number of avenues.\n\nIf you want to work for yourself, approach computer repair shops; I'm sure they get requests for custom software all the time. \n\nIf you want to work for a company, investigate health care and finance / insurance; they have piles of money and piles of need. That's where I make all my money.

After completed your course you can achieve a good job but you must a good knowledge of ORACLE9i and should have some experience. I think, if you can take a certificate of MCDBA than it sure you can achieve job with a good salary.

It depends on the job and the employers tastes.  If you have no programming experience, the best thing you can do is to try use your computer smarts to advance yourself in the field of finance.  Get a job as an analyst and since you are really good w/ computers, you can leverage that skill to do the job of an analyst, better than the person who DOESN'T have that computer skill.

You can probably get a NOC (Network Operations Center) job or some sort of IT Help Desk. If you have enough database experience (SQL, Oracle) you might be able to get in as a Jr. Level Database Administrator. \n\nIf it's a good company...get your foot in the door and move your way up. Find out how hard it is to transfer to different departments because you are not going to want to stay in some sort of help desk role for long. \n\nYou'll find later on that with enough experience you can move into different roles. Look into Project Management as well.

Most programmers (for gaming) usually only work on a small part of a big programme. Around £25-30k

Currently, computer programming is the highest paying field in computers, and software engineers are the highest paid computer programmers.

actualy if you are a good programmer you can right your own program. That would be the best thing to do.

I would say accounting.  I have a CS degree and there are no jobs in CS.  Pretty much all computer work is done in indea these days.  Computers are used more and more, but you don't need a computer programmer to use them anymore.  Computers have become appliances and people use them all the time and don't even realize it.  There are rather powerful computers in cell phones, VCR's, and video games, but you don't need to be a computer expert to used them.  So I'd go with accounting.  A lot of that is done in india too unfortunately, but there is still more demand for accountants that speak english than computer guys.

The best degree in Computer Science is NO degree.  In the US, the computer field is dead.
