True, but it's a decent method for those just starting out, you learn a lot, especially with hands on training. My school is really big on technology :thumbup:

Just from my experience of talking to IT managers, you can tell which ones are paper MCSE's and those who actually know what they're doing.

But do you know what the hell you're doing? I see these schools around here and they talk about people getting certified in a few months, but the fact is they still dont know a god damn thing, and they take up the jobs, and when employers realize they know nothing, they raise the bar, and people like me can't get a job. :down:

for the A+ it is not from Cisco per say but Comptia. Cisco offers CCNA and CC some or other. A+ is a great starting point. I would recommend you get A+ and then look at MCSE, and then maybe look at CCNA or Network+ Server+ certs.

It depends also on how you study or prepare. a boot camp might be good but if you want some hands on experiience take the classes.

Man I hope that made some sense. Insomina pwns me.
