I did my bachelors in Engineering and then MS in Computer Science from US. Worked for 2-3 years on different contracts mostly on .Net technology when there was .net 1.0 and ASP.Net 1.1 I believe. Then I had to come back to my home country in Jan 2006 and here I got a job totally irrelevant to IT. Here I'm working as Manager Planning & Coordination which is mainly concerned with Admin related tasks. Now after 3 years, when I dont see any career advancement in current position, I want to get in to IT again but as you expected I almost forgot every single word. Now I'm a little bit afraid in entering into this world and even I cannot be able to make my resume, but I have to get in. I would like to ask you that in IT where should I go. Should I again revised my programming skills and reappear as programmer or there is some other option. As I say I'm in my mid level career, I dont want to be introduced again as a programmer (just a thought). Another region I see is Information Technology Security but I dont know the prospects and trainings or certifications that can be beneficial. Please HELP!! Thanks, Salman Hi,
