I notice a lot of people have:
IBM Cert. WMQ
IBM Cert. Solution Designer
IBM Cert. Solution Developer
IBM Cert. System Administrator
IBM Cert. WMQ Integrator
IBM Cert. System Administrator
how do you get these and is it possible to learn online? which is the best to start with? |

If you do a simple search for certification, you will end up finding a link to the IBM website all about certifications-- including pages on each individual exam with an outline of the topics covered, a recommended list of educational materials and a practice exam (that usually costs $10).
You'll also find lots of attempts to get answers to practice exam questions or real exam questions, and an explanation of why we don't do that here.

| You have to go to a testing facility to take the tests. You have to be monitored. I'm not sure of the cost, but it is usually in the range of $150 to $200. You can sometimes take the tests for a reduced cost (even free) at conferences. |

You can take the sample test online at Prometric for $10.
