    Did I do the wrong thing?

    o you have any IT experience? If not then you should probably go with A+ first. A+ will help you get your foot in the door at an entry level IT job. Without the experience to back it up, Security+ and Server+ aren't all that useful. ____________ Microsoft Certified Professional (70-290...

    Network+ as first certification

    A+ is totally entry level. If you are beyond entry level, then if for some reason an employer requires it you can just take an afternoon off and go take the tests. It is not that hard at all. I would skip it if I were you. Unless a future employer explicitly demands that you need it...

    Comptia A+ Examinations

    A+ is a total cakewalk. I wouldn't recommend wasting your money on CBT Nuggets just for the A+. The latest A+ study guide put out by Mike Meyers is really all anyone needs to pass the test. ____________ Microsoft Certified Professional (70-290, 70-270) VMware Certified Professional XenSource...

    I know this thread is old but just in case anyone else stumbles across it... I just took and passed Security+ this morning with an 830 out of a possible 900. My entire study regimen consisted of barely skimming through about 50% of the Sybex Security+ book and nothing else. The test is a total...

    Certification... Which one is better ?

    OK, to give an analogy. If you had a shop that was 100% Nortel equipment and you could hire a guy that had a Network+ certification or a CCNP cert, who would you hire? The Net+ might be vendor neutral but it is totally entry level, the CCNP might be Cisco specific, and you might be a Nortel...

    Certification... Which one is better ?

    >>Which one is more valuable ? RHCE without question. From the two people I've talked to who took it, it is supposed to be an incredibly grueling hands on test. They basically sit you in front of a system, give you a small book of things that need to be configured and then give you eight...
