    How often do everyone Re-certify?

    I see. Thanks! I'm getting into the CompTIA Network + now as I'm about done with CompTIA A+. It's kinda ironic that the weak point of my A+ when i took practice exams was in the networking sections and I'm starting in Networking + now >_<. I plan to take my A+ exam in 2 weeks roughly as I...

    How often do everyone Re-certify?

    Just curious, I was wondering if everyone here with certs already re certify when it becomes "not current" or only when it's necessary? And for the Microsoft/CompTIA re-certifications, you take the same exams? I think I read somewhere on their websites they offer special prices for individuals...

    Certs., are they worth the cost?

    That is helpful, thx! I was starting to figure that the MCITP would be a waste of time at this point relevant to my current experience. In terms of getting a position that dealt with or would require the knowledge that Cert. implies you have. I do intend to certify with the CompTIA at least in...

    Certs., are they worth the cost?

    Thx =). Haha, to be honest, my feelings are a bit mixed. I'm scared, anxious, and excited. And I feel extremely lacking right now in terms of the prospect of being a "breadwinner" or having something...or someone depend on me. Hopefully, things will pan out well in the coming months.

    Certs., are they worth the cost?

    Thanks for your responses. I do not have money lying around, I am considering this an investment into my families future. Yes, going to a traditional 4 year school would be perhaps more effective in the long long run, but, I have a little one on the way and I'm not sure if I'll be juggle a new...

    Certs., are they worth the cost?

    There is no travel expenses involved unless I want to be there personally, it is all Live online training and dialing in remotely to the work station. The plus side at Netcom is that you can re-take the course you taken prior already as many times as you like 12 months from the end date of the...

    Certs., are they worth the cost?

    Hi, I am new to the forum and in dire need of some advice. A little about me, I've worked since I was 16, up until I was 22 I've always had a supervisory/management position. At 22, my career and school was flipped upside down due to some rather unfortunate personal circumstances with my...
