spfdz - NEVER FORGET

spfd · 12-10-2003, 08:40 PM

I was wanting to get into Networking+ and A+. Theres a 2 year course and a 6month certification.

I was curious, what would benefit me better to do first.

Diploma first or certification?

I would imagine the 2 year course to be in more detail than the 6 month, so it would probably be better, but you can learn what you need to know in those 6 months or less.

I am doing both at the same time. I am in school for IT and when I learned enough that I could pass A+ I took it and got certified. Same with Network+. Same with my MCP (W2K Pro & Server).

I am taking 70-218 next. (Mananging a Windows 2000 Network)
