whitepaper Microsoft Certifications at the Core of Successful New Zealand IT Skills Training Program2008-12-01 Microsoft
  AMES trains aspiring IT workers of all ages, offering both diploma and certification programs that are benchmarked against international certification standards and approved by the New Zealand Qualifications Authority. When it began in New Zealand in 1992, the Aotearoa Mature Employment Service Trust (AMES) had a relatively simple goal: to help a handful of senior executives who were made redundant find new jobs. Since then, AMES - now known as AMES Training and Resource Centre - has dramatically evolved along with New Zealand's job market. AMES now trains about 500 students annually - from ages 16 to 65 - to meet the needs of the modern workplace, using its unique certification curriculum built around teaching tools and certification programs offered through the Microsoft IT Academy program.

whitepaper The True Value of Learning2008-06-27 SkillSoft

That means it is the first to go when funds are needed elsewhere.
