CCNA important for CISCO partnership

[psolis]

Maybe some can think of value of the CCNA in terms of what it means to a company in addition to what it means to yourself - some companies will need your cert to reach a certain level of partnership with CISCO which gives the company great value.

A lot of folks don't realize that because they are in support roles. But for resellers/architects this is VERY important. Your partner status determines your price structure, which dictates your overall competitiveness.

Thanks for pointing that out. This is, in fact, the whole reason that Cisco implemented the cert program to start with - to certify the competence of partners based on their staff.
