I want to buff my skill set and CV before I commit, and I was wondering if anyone had any advice as to which exams (if any) would be best. I'm currently considering an MCSD.


That would help, however there are a new set of certification exams for .NET 2.0 you might want to consider them instead - especially if you are not branching out until next year.

I'd like to move on to do some consultancy work (not in the games biz - I'd like to branch out, perhaps into web development/databases).


You might want to create some thing to show of your database skills. I'm not sure that 8 years games programming will cut it if you are moving to enterprise database systems. Get hold of SQL Server and use it, and write some articles on it - that will be something to show to potential employers. I remember having a hard time a few years ago becuase I was applying for jobs using SQL Server 2000 and I'd used databases for 7 years prior to that, just not SQL Server. I had to work very hard to prove that I could use SQL Server.


Scottish Developers upcoming sessions include:
.NET debugging, tracing and instrumentation by Duncan Edwards Jones and Code Coverage in .NET by Craig Murphy
